French Week

During French Week, Year 6 learned how to play the French game, Poules, Renards, Viperes. This is a three-way tag game, so you need to divide your players into three teams. 

Les poules (the chickens) chase the snakes and are chased by the foxes.
Les renards (the foxes) chase the chickens and are chased by the snakes.
Les viperes (the snakes) chase the foxes and are chased by the chickens.

If you are tagged by the team chasing you, then they capture you and take you back to their base. 

We had a lot of fun playing this game, and we'd recommend it to any class to try (make sure you have three different coloured sets of bibs or sashes, though)!

Term 6 - Language Skills

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. Children had to turn over a word card and a definition card and see if they matched. If they did, the children had to try to spell the word without looking at the card. If they were correct, they kept the pair of cards. The winner was the player with the most pairs!

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?
