Year 6 finished their music and me projects and performed them to the rest of the class. The outcomes were great. The children worked so hard on them and really worked well together in small groups.
Music and Me Projects
Monthly Archives: June 2023
DT Project
Year 6 have started a brand new DT project this term. The children are working in small groups to design and make their very own night lights. So far, the children have looked at a set of code for a nightlight and discussed what it makes the light do and have designed what they want their night lights to look like. They are super excited to start making them!
Online Relationships
In our online safety lesson this term we discussed online relationships and what is and is not appropriate to share online.
We had lots of interesting discussions about what is and is not suitable to be shared online. The children said that nothing should be shared that contains personal information, photographs with uniform or photographs without permission.
The children then had to write a letter as an ‘Agony Aunt’ in response to a child with a problem who was seeking advice.
Maths – Revision Prisms
In maths, Year 6 have been making revision prisms for future Year 6 children. Each child has chosen their own topic of expertise and has planned and created the revision prisms themselves.
Music and Me
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!
