Term 5 - Post-SATs Celebration

Year 6 have worked so hard this year, in all areas of the curriculum! We are so proud of them and the progress that every single child has made in their time with us. They showed our Cabot values of partnership, inclusion and excellence during SATs week, and should all be feeling very pleased with themselves. To celebrate the end of their SATs, we had a class party. Thank you so much to the generosity our parents and carers showed in cooking, preparing and purchasing treats for the children to share! (We haven't finished eating everything yet - I think we will be having a biscuit a day for some time yet!)

Of course, the week wouldn't have been complete without the Don't Lick Your Lips Challenge, when we were delighted to be given freshly-baked doughnuts by Mr Burton! How many children do you think managed to eat their doughnut without licking their lips...?

The day wouldn't have been completed without Mrs Ahkter creating amazing henna designs for every child who wanted one. Don't they look amazing?

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.
