Year 6 information

Long term plan

Golf

In PE this half term, Year 6 are taking part in Golf lessons. For week 1, the children learnt how to putt from short distances. They learnt how to hold the club correctly and thoroughly enjoyed the session. 

Music

In Music, we are looking at different rhythms and have started by recapping what a minim, quaver and crotchet are. We even looked at rests and then had a very practical session clapping the rhythms.

Science

In Science, our topic is ‘Evolution and inheritance’ and we have been learning about adaptations as well as Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. 

Design Technology

Topic - Playgrounds 

The children have been exploring different playgrounds and have been set the challenge of designing their own playground. They had to make sure they designed 5 pieces of apparatus which connected together in some way. They then got to make their playground designs using recycled materials.

French

Year 6 are thrilled to begin learning French again with Madame Bex! This week we celebrated International Day of Languages and the children loved watching and spotting how many different languages they could hear in a popular song, ‘ We don’t talk about Bruno’ !
