This week in Gloucestershire 6

Week beginning Monday 2nd February:

What a wonderful week we have had in Year 6! In English, we continued reading our termly text: ‘Runaway Robot’, and used this as inspiration for our writing. Can you remember what we read in class this week? How did you use this as inspiration for your writing.

In RE, we continued to explore Humanism. In particular, we looked at the things Humanists value. In the lesson, we were tasked with looking at particular items, e.g. a pencil, a heart, a globe, a magnifying glass and an artist’s mannequin and explaining how these items link to humanism. What links did you make? Do you value any of these things too?

In Geography, we continued to learn about the Polar regions. In this week’s lesson, we used our research from last week’s lesson to help us write comparative paragraphs outlining the similarities and differences between the Polar Oceans to the other oceans in the world. What facts can you remember? How are these oceans different? Do they have any similarities?

In Science, we wrote research questions to explore in further detail about cells and batteries. What questions did you ask? Did any of your research give you any surprising facts?

We hope you have a great weekend!
