Year 6

This afternoon we explored which organs are in the circulatory system and predicted where they are located in our bodies.

We undertook field work and explored our local area as part of our topic work. We looked at key features such as shops, houses and other commercial buildings. We will be using the information we have collected to produce our own hand-drawn, detailed map.

This term we have been learning lots of wonderful things in our French lessons with Mrs West and you can see some of this learning in the videos below:

Recently in our poetry work, we have been creating of a modern version of the festive poem ‘Twas the night before Christmas’.  The children analysed the features, pattern and language in the poem and then set about creating their own modern version based on their own experiences of Christmas day.  Following this, Mr Lane, Charlie and Gabriel rapped some of the poems and you can see the video of Gabriel’s amazing performance below.

Week beginning Monday 26th November was ‘Road Safety’ week at Peter’s.   However, Year 6 have been practising their road awareness skills each week on their walk to our local swimming baths.   We are becoming much more aware of the dangers and how to remain safe when walking in our busy town.   The journey to and from the pool is becoming much more efficient and therefore journey time is reduced due to our increased awareness of the roads and safely crossing.    We are almost fully prepared for our transition to secondary school – we just need to keep on practising.

Year 6 Green have been busy helping to make hampers and raffle prizes for the Christmas Fayre on Saturday!

We had a great time at Bolton SICT learning all about building, coding and programming robots!
