Year 6 have been debugging and designing algorithms over the past few weeks, using the Bee Bots. We're designing our own maps of China, including features that we have learnt about over the term, and we'll then test our understanding of algorithms by programming the Bee Bots to move around the map!

Year 6 have been practising their -ant, -ance, -ancy and -ent, -ence and -ency spellings recently. One fun way we found to practise was by playing a matching game.

Activities - Week 6

Good morning Year 6, It feels like it's been a very long time since we've seen you now, and we miss you all very much.

Thank you so much if you've posted a comment on the blog - we have replied to every comment that we've seen.

Ramadan and reading

Ramadan Mubarak, Year 6!  We know that Ramadan this year will be very different to any that you have experienced so far.

Have a lovely weekend, Ms Tupman and M
