On 8th January, Year 6 marked La Fete des Rois, which is celebrated on France on the Sunday closest to 6th January. We shared a delicious galette de rois, which Mrs Cartlidge made for us. Ours had a filling of lemon curd, whilst other classes had apples. Traditionally, it is made with almonds.
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!
