Yesterday, the children worked in their small groups to add instruments to their lyrics! It is all sounding really exciting and I can’t wait to share the finished pieces of music with you all.

Blood!
To kick off their new topic in science, Year 6 looked at the composition of blood. As part of this lesson, they had a go at making their own models of blood using different objects to represent different things. Inside of this jar we have red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, plasma and haemoglobin.
Did you know that it is the substance called haemoglobin that gives your blood it’s red colour?
~Online Fraud
In PSHE recently Year 6 have been exploring online fraud. Over a series of two lessons the children looked at different types of online fraud, decided whether scenarios were likely to be online fraud and even had a go at sporting some fake emails and websites! The children were all very good at this and definitely know what to look out for!
Music and Me
Throughout the Summer term, since the children finished their SATs papers, they have all been working on their very own ‘Music and Me’ projects. The children have put themselves into small groups to work together to create their very own pieces of music that represent identity. So far, the children have worked on deciding their topics/themes within the overall theme and writing the lyrics for their pieces of music. Stay posted to see the final pieces of music that they create very soon!
Sequencing in Computing
Today in computing Year 6 created their very own musical sequences using Scratch. The children had a great time programming their piano keys to play different notes and then playing well known songs like Twinkle Twinkle.
Science Week: Live Lesson
Today we were going to take part in the Science Week Live Lesson.
Now, you might want to take part in it at home!
Creating Surveys and analysing the responses.
In computing this week the children have responded to the surveys that their peers created before half term. They then collected their responses and had a go at creating charts to display these results using Microsoft Excel.
World Book Week Dress Up
On Friday we dressed up as a book character or a word. From Alice in Wonderland to Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, here are some of the outfits that were worn in Year 6. I particularly liked the ‘Holes’ themed costumes as we have read that book as part of our writing lessons
World Book Week
During World Book Week we spent an ERIC session sharing our favourite books. It was really interesting to hear what everybody liked and would recommend.
