Class Update - Summer 1
It has been another jam-packed term in Year 6 which has seen the children completing their SATs. It was an absolute joy to see them at our breakfast club and to observe the courage that they showed as they sat each paper. Their results will be shared with you when we receive them towards the end of next term but please do remember that these only represent a small portion of their learning journey so far; we look forward to sharing their full school report with you too which will share the bigger picture!
In our maths lessons, we have been consolidating our understanding of the KS2 curriculum with a focus on fractions, percentages, decimals and worded problems. We have been drawing on the different methods that we know and identifying which are the most effective for the problem in front of us.
Our writing has focused on a report detailing the key events of the Titanic disaster. We have sequenced the key events and considered how best to present these for our reader. We have drawn on the different aspects of our writer's toolbox, considering language, sentence structure, and punctuation choices and the impact that these will have on our reader.
In one of our two PE units, we have been developing our rounders skills with a focus on fielding techniques. We have developed our throwing and catching skills and have looked at positioning ourselves around the playing area to field as effectively as possible.
As the children enter their final term of their primary years, we look forward to completing the Year 6 Curriculum including our writing journeys; our Enterprise Project which will see the children raise money for a cause close to their hearts; our PSHE lessons which will focus on secondary transition and building confidence around this; our residential to Runway's End; and of course our Leaver's Assembly which the children will be writing and performing themselves.
We know that this final term can be filled with mixed emotions for both the children and their families, so please do touch base with us if you have any questions or concerns. We also have our Y6 Tea and Talk on Wednesday 18th June 2-3pm which you are warmly invited to attend.
We thank you for your continued support,
The Year 6 Team.
