Year 6 have been investigating units of measure. They started out looking at length and measuring objects in the classroom and then they used weighing scales to measure the mass.
Reading scales and converting measures is a very important skill to have.
Year 6 enjoyed a local walk which including different parts of the curriculum.
Geography
Before the walk, the children had practised drawing sketch maps of the school. For the walk, the children had looked at compass points and worked out where North was and then during the walk they continued to look at a compass and relate this to the map we were following.
History
The children learnt about different buildings around Wickersley, what they were used for and when they were built.
Mental Health
Sometimes, it’s just good to get out of the classroom and have fun.
Y6 have been investigating and learning about electrical circuits this half term. They have enjoyed testing whether circuits work, how they can change components and how to draw circuits.
Y6 children have received their new Bibles. Children use them during Collective Worship and also for discussions in the classroom.
Y6 have been working extremely hard during Design and Technology lessons. They have been designing a nightlight for a younger child. Part of their design process was to do market research so they prepared questionnaires for the Y2 children.
Y6 have been studying Light and they have been investigating how shadows are formed and how they can be changed.
Many children can suffer from eating disorders. There is help out there if you need it.
The children had an amazing time at the Oakes.
They took part in many activities, games and collective worship.
