What we are learning in Year 6.
English
This week we are continuing with our book "Stay where you are and Leave." We will be discussing what is happening to Alfie and his family and how he is feeling, including creating a conscience alley. We will then write an account of something that we have done for love as well as writing a poem.

Maths
We are moving onto comparing and rounding decimals as well as beginning to solve 5-digit numbers using addition and mental strategies. We will finish the week with some reasoning questions.

Topic
We are learning about Queen Victoria and her significance and creating a timeline of her life and achievements.

Science
We will be drawing circuit diagrams indicating voltage and explaining the effect of increasing or decreasing the voltage on different parts of a circuit.

This Easter you child will have taken home their GPS book, reading file and maths file,  We ask that they revise these subjects for a minimum of 45 minutes every day.
They should also look over all the spellings from this year and review the glossary of terms that they have been given.

If they come across something they do not understand please ask them to make a note of it and speak to their teacher when they return to school.

We hope you all have a wonderful Easter break.

Today, Year 6 children visited Norwood Green Care home and sang Christmas songs to the residents. 

Both Year 6 classes are working really hard, learning their lines, practicing their singing, making their costumes and getting ready for the Christmas showing of 'The Christmas Jigsaw' next week.

Just to remind parents the dates of the Christmas show are the following;
Tuesday 13th December, 1.30pm, in the Church
Wednesday 14th December, 6.00pm, in the Church.

At a bustling Christmas market full of the joyful sounds of carol singers and cheeky market sellers, five excited children come across a very special stallholder who gives them a tatty old Christmas jigsaw in return for the promise that they will find time to complete it on Christmas Eve. As the children gradually piece the jigsaw together with the help of a very special visitor, the Christmas story comes to life with all the traditional nativity characters.
With a fantastic array of catchy songs performed by the whole of Key Stage 2 and an enchanting script performed by Year 6 it looks set to be a wonderful night.

We look forward to seeing as many as you there as possible.
