Wow Day: Shang Dynasty

It was our topic Wow Day this week! Years 5 and 6 wore red and spent the day working in partnership together exploring various aspects of Chinese culture and history.

In the morning, children made spring rolls with Miss Matthews and Mr Shamsudin, made paper lanterns with Mr Town, and explored Chinese artefacts with Ms Tupman.

In the afternoon, children played Chinese games with Mr Jade and Mrs Ahkter, made fans with Miss Matthews, and researched celebrities with Chinese heritage with Ms Tupman.

At the end of the day, we tasted our spring rolls. Delicious!

Term 6 - Writing

In literacy lessons, we have been learning about part of S. F. Said's book, 'Phoenix'. We read an edited version of the first chapter, and over the next few weeks, created our own action stories based on that.

Term 6 - Music Week

For Music Week, we listened to 'The Carnival of the Animals'. Year 6 focused on 'The Aviary'. After discussing the piece of music, we looked at images of birds and then collaborated as a table to create our own bold, beautiful birds. Don't they look great?

Term 6 - Writing Day

We loved celebrating National Writing Day this year! It was really interesting to think about how authors and illustrators work together to tell a story, and we have made a fantastic class book full of stories about our proudest moments. We also liked taking part in the challenges which came over the walkie-talkie during the day! A particular favourite was 'write your name in fancy'.

Year 6 2021-22
