Term 2: WOW Day

 In a slight change to how Cabot normally holds Wow Days, Year 5 and 6 decided to celebrate the end of their China topic, rather than the start! We had our Wow Day this Monday; it was fantastic seeing all the children celebrate their learning by wearing outfits with red or yellow on them to school.

We divided our classes into three groups in the morning. Each group had an opportunity to participate in three activities: making spring rolls, investigating Chinese artefacts, and creating our own oracle bone tablets from clay. 

In the afternoon, Year 5 made Chinese fans, whilst Year 6 made paper lanterns. Then, we had a real treat at the end of the day: we were invited to watch the KS1 performance! What an excellent start to the last week of term!

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'.
