Y6 SATS revision,

We will be using pictures, books, internet and stories to find out how people lived in the past. We will be comparing to the now.

In D&T we will be designing our very own mini ships and testing them to see if they can make it across our very own St Anne’s ocean supporting a crew of jelly babies. We will also be making bread.

We will be using maps of the World and the UK. Looking at the geographically structures of icebergs and how they move. We will also be looking at the cities of the UK.

In music we will be creating our very own masterpieces of music to represent the flickering flames of London. We will also be putting our junk modelling skills to use and creating our own musical instruments. On Friday’s Mrs Bailey will be working on our Charanga music programme; where children will look at composition, listening skills and percussion.

This term we will be completing lots of scientific enquires and focussing upon our environment. We will also be looking at different scientists and inventors—watch out for our own inventions! We will also be looking at everyday materials and the uses these have through scientific enquiries. Science week—3rd February 2020
