Mindfulness Day

Today is a mindfulness day. A day away from the computer.

We are going to dedicate this day to our Jigsaw topic of Dreams and Goals.

If you have not yet completed yesterday’s Jigsaw lesson, please do that first.

There are then two tasks to complete today below.

Once you have done them, send through your results on Dojo. Then,  it's time for you to relax and enjoy a much-deserved half term.

Welcome to our Year 6 page.

We have a exciting Spring term ahead!

The adults supporting us in class are Miss Barker and Mrs Atwood. As you can see above, we are going to be exploring the topic of Natural Disasters. Throughout our studies of this subject, we will:

• Consider why some places are more effected by natural disasters than others by looking at the structure of our Earth
• Theorise if a disaster on the scale of Pompeii could happen again
• Use a range of programmes to measure the impact of natural disasters
• Create a product, using circuits, to clear up after a natural disaster
• Use perspective to draw the impact of natural disasters
• Build structures to withstand natural disasters
• Read 'Floodland' by Marcus Sedgwick
• Use our imaginations to write our own spooky tales and adventure stories, then use persasusion and explanation texts to demonstarte our understanding of the topic

In addition, we will be covering the topics of decimals, percentages, measures, ratio, algrabra and geometry in maths. PE will look at developing our dance skills. PE days are a Wednesday and pupils should come into school in their full PE kits. No need for school uniform that day.
