Maths

The children have, this week, explored money and time. As a year group we solved money and timetable problems using our number knowledge.

Next week the children will be looking at angles.  They will measure and draw them and solve missing angle problems.

English

Year 6 have spent this week writing setting descriptions of the island from the text Kensuke’s Kingdom.  They focused on using ambitious vocabulary, expanded noun phrases, figurative language and prepositional phrases.

Next week the children will be planning and writing a flashback based on the character Michael in our class text and using the correct tenses.  They will then spend some time drawing and describing Kensuke.

Afternoon lessons

This week Year 6 have learnt a huge amount about the Bubonic Plague. After learning about the symptoms, cures and the Plague Doctor, the children made their own bubo in class!

Next week the children will be learning about The Peasants’ Revolt.  They will become experts and incorporate their learning into lessons involving timelines and drama.
