European Day of Languages
We came to school dressed in red, white and blue because we are learning to speak French this year.
To launch our new MFL we enjoyed lots of different activities. Our favourite was tasting different French foods such as: baguettes, crepes, croissants, brioches and different French cheeses. Yum! Yum!

CHANGE YOUR MINDSET
To start our new year in Year 6 we have been thinking about having a growth mindset.
We did different activities to challenge our mindsets.
We now understand the difference between having a fixed and a growth mindset.

Year 5 AND 6 SCIENCE WORKSHOPS
Date: 9th Jun 2019 @ 7:44am
Year 5 and 6 had a fantastic (and slightly messy 
) time exploring the properties of materials; using slime, milk, bubbles and colour. They recorded what they had observed and thought carefully about the 'science' they could see happening. The children used some excellent scientific language to record their ideas.

To celebrate World Poetry Day, Mrs Roberts' Year 6 writing group have studied the poem 'Balloons' by Sylvia Plath. We have performed it; analysed the language and discussed the poet's feelings when writing the poem. Following this, we looked in detail at candle light and a daffodil - thinking about how we could personify them in the way that Sylvia Plath does a balloon. We are really proud of the poems we have created!

Can you solve the mystery of the Maya?

To finish off our topic in Year 6 we have enjoyed playing a version of the Mayan game Pok-a-Tok.
Pok-a-Tok was played by the Ancient Maya and is the oldest known team sport with a ball- invented over 3500 years ago. The losing team was usually sacrificed. Luckily for Year 6 we did not try this part of the game.
