French

🇫🇷 🧁 🇫🇷 Français chez toi avec Madame Cartlidge 🇫🇷 🧁 🇫🇷 

Bonjour !

Well done if you guessed  that today’s title means “French at home with Mrs Cartlidge” !

I have had some lovely messages from children who had a go at making the crêpes from the recipe a couple of weeks ago  - thank you so much! I am missing seeing you all and that really cheered me up.

As you obviously enjoy cooking, I have another recipe for you this week: a popular French cake called ‘Madeleine’


If you can’t make the cakes yourself, you can watch this video of a mum and her son making Madeleines. 


The recipe is not quite the same, but can you find out the name of the extra ingredient?

Au revoir !

Madame Cartlidge

History

For our Space Race learning today, please research a 'first________ in space' that we haven't talked about yet. Here are some suggestions for people you could research:

You could also research other space firsts, such as first photograph of ________, first international space station, first space telescope... Comment or email to let us know what you find out!

Have a good day!

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 5 - Literacy

 In Literacy, we read and wrote discussion texts about whether or not artefacts such as the Benin Bronzes should be returned to their countries of origin. To explore the issue, Year 6 took part in role-play activities and conscience alleys to share their opinions and understand how different people might feel about this topical issue. Year 6 showed great maturity in discussing this topic and were able to express their viewpoints with evidence and arguments to back themselves up.
