Here is our wordle from our zoom session this morning. For our last session next week please have a think about something that you are looking forward to in Year 6 and anything you are apprehensive about.
Hello everyone,
We hope you have all had a good week. Well done to those children who have completed the MyMaths activity. There are still quite a few of you who have not done it yet - there is still a little bit of time! Please find time to complete the activity - it is highlighted in yellow.
This week Mrs Berger is going to explain to you how to use a protractor. Don't forget to prepare the 2 items for our zoom call on Monday - 1) a word to describe what lockdown has meant to you. 2) a photo/explanation of a skill/talent you have learnt during the past few months.
We hope you have a fantastic weekend and we are looking forward to seeing more great work from you next week.
'See' you Monday!

Hi everyone !
We hope you all have had an enjoyable week filled with a good balance of work and play. Have you been on lots of walks or bike rides?

We are incredibly impressed with the effort you are putting in and it is great to see such hard work from you all in such tricky times.

Example of planet setting description:
This planet was a maze of thick, spiralling branches. Golden yellow leaves dangled down from them and flickered like candle flames in breeze. Sweet scented pollen drifted through the archways created by the curving branches. Beneath, on the carpet of red dust grew strange, exotic, unfamiliar plants, which glowed bright neon colours. The creatures that lurked in this tangled forest, spun on a single point like a child's spinning top. Their surface was silver-white and rippled like a liquid, but kept it's shape like a solid. They emitted the most beautiful and enchanting music as they spun.
