🇫🇷 🧁 🇫🇷 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:

First Black Woman in Space (Mae Jemison);
First Briton in Space (Helen Sharman);
First Female Muslim in Space (Anousheh Ansari);
First Muslim in Space (Sultan bin Salman Al Saud).

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 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?
