Otherwise, spend some time on https://switchzoo.com/zoo.htm finalising the creature that you will write about next week (remember that at school today we found out that this site worked on the iPads if we used Google Chrome, but not Safari). 

Make sure that you are happy with the animal you have created, and remember there are different options available, depending on which animal you start with! (Use the buttons highlighted in the picture below to change your starting animal.)


Here are some examples of creatures you could make:

      Good morning, Amira!

      1. Not quite - how long is the car? How long is the bus? What's the difference?

      2. Yes, the heaviest is either B or C, but which one is it? C weighs more than A (C > A), so A can't be the heaviest. Does C weigh more than B, or does B weigh more than C?

      3. and 4. YES! Well done.

      5. I'm going to add something about this one in a moment.

      Hi Amira,

      Sorry, that took me a while longer than I thought. I've made a quick video to explain Question 5. You can watch it here: White Rose Challenge Video

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'.
