Spelling Bee

We walked to St Werburgh's this afternoon to take part in a Spelling Bee with several local schools. The first few rounds featured words from the Year 5/6 spelling list, but once we'd run out of those, the words got a lot harder! Each school had six children representing them. After four rounds, we still had three children from Cabot in the competition! We ended up coming join second, after being foiled by the very tricky word, 'sovereign'. Well done to all who took part - you represented Cabot excellently, and we are so proud of you!

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'.
