Y6 week beg 16 11 15

Well, what a busy week we had last week! It was lovely meeting your parents and sharing your good progress with them.
In Maths this week we have been multiplying fractions by whole numbers and then simplifying the answers.
eg 6 x 3/4 = 18/4 = 4 2/4 = 4 1/2
Also you worked hard with your area work and I was impressed with your deeper thinking answers too.
I hope you enjoyed the Critical Skills day we had on Thursday. It was good to see you all working together so well and managing to produce a quality piece of work within a fairly short space of time. We need to think now about how we got on and what improvements we could make next time. I will attempt to add photos to the blog once I am back in school next week.
Have you done anything that has taken you out of your comfort zone and into your courage zone this weekend? Our work based on this is ready for display and hopefully Mrs Harley and Mrs Black will put it up on Monday for you so that you can refer to it especially when you are feeling a little unconfident!
Towards the end of the week the whole school will study the text 'Tell Me A Dragon' by Jackie Morris concentrating on the arts. KS2 will spend Thursday and Friday working in mixed age groups in each classroom over 4 sessions. You will have chance to write poetry and descriptions, dance, do drama, choral speaking, music, sculpture, water colour and experiment with different art techniques. Please try and bring in an old adult T-shirt or shirt to cover your uniform especially on Thursday when it is individual photographs. Write your name inside these shirts as you will be working in a number of classrooms over the days.
Individual/ family photographs will be taken on Thursday starting at 9am. If you would like your child to have an individual photograph as well as one with their siblings please send in a note otherwise there will just be a family photograph taken.
Have a good weekend, don't forget reading, mathletics, homework and takeaway homework. Lucky you have so much to do over this wet and miserable weekend!
See you next week
Mrs C and Mrs H
