September

It has been a jam-packed September for Year 6! The children are settling into our new classroom wonderfully and are really keeping up with our packed schedule.

In Literacy, we’ve started reading 'Pig Heart Boy' by Malorie Blackman, which is a fascinating book that tackles some controversial issues surrounding organ transplants. This links perfectly to our Science topic about the circulatory system. The thought-provoking storyline of 'Pig Heart Boy' has sparked some fantastic debates in our Literacy sessions. The children picked sides, did their research, and gathered facts to back up their opinions. They then practised their debating skills, and we wrapped up the week with some lively discussions. It was delightful to see them articulate their arguments so well!

In Science, we’ve been diving into how our circulatory system works and how our hearts pump blood throughout our bodies. 

 

For PE, we’ve been focusing on netball, working on our passing, pivoting, and understanding positions as we gear up to play some full games. It’s wonderful to see the teamwork and camaraderie developing among the children.

In art, we have begun our learning journey about Lowry, a Victorian artist. We have been experimenting with tools he used to create his industrial landscapes and mimicked his style by creating our own matchstick people. We will eventually produce our own Lowry inspired landscapes.

As we continue to embark on these learning adventures, I encourage you to engage your children in discussions about what they are learning. Supporting their curiosity at home will enhance their understanding and make their educational experience even richer.
