Term 3: Goodbyes

 

Today was a bittersweet day; Year 6 were this week's joint Golden Ticket winners for our fantastic walking around the school and how quickly we settled to learning time. We also had several sweet treats, including these amazing chocolate muffins which were prepared very carefully for us!

However, it was our last day with Mrs Holian, who is about to start maternity leave. We spent a lot of time this week making fantastic congratulations and good luck for her. Year 6 had a lot of fun finding baby jokes to add to the cards!

Mrs Holian also gave us awesome personalised pencils, several sweet treats, and three class presents. We're really excited to read 'Amazing Muslims Who Changed the World'  by Burhana Islam, to hatch our 'dinosaur egg' and to play the Yes! No! Game. Thank you so much, Mrs Holian! We've really enjoyed you being our teacher and we can't wait to meet your baby!

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!

Ramadan and reading

Ramadan Mubarak, Year 6!  We know that Ramadan this year will be very different to any that you have experienced so far. Please watch this message from Bristol Muslim Strategic Leadership Group (BMSLG), the Mayor of Bristol and others - they very eloquently say all that we wish to say to you:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ma3iNRImtbo .  We also have a few reading updates for you! For those of you who have been following along with Miss Davies' Family Performance Poetry Challenge, Ms Tupman's aunt and uncle have decided to join you! Here's their version of 'The Boneyard Rap':  https://youtu.be/RYMP-pN_8Tc . Finally, Miss Davies has made some reading lessons for you. Your parents should have received a text message with the link, but in case they didn't, you can access the lesson here:  https://youtu.be/GqMqvtIb0G4 . It will take you about 20 minutes to do, and there will be a new lesson next Wednesday. Have a lovely weekend, Ms Tupman and M

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.
