Week beginning Monday 22nd June:
It’s been a wonderfully warm week in Year 6!
In Science, we explored inheritance and discussed recessive and dominant genes. We used our prior understanding of this topic to support us in collecting continuous and non-continuous data (height and eye colour) and we displayed this information in a bar graph and a line graph. Which graph did we use for each type of data? Why did we use that type of graph?
In PSHE, we discussed stereotypes. We started the lesson by creating a Frayer model outlining what stereotypes are, what they’re not, an example of stereotypes and synonyms for stereotype. The children were challenged with coming up with their own events they could theoretically organise for a school setting that challenge these stereotypes head on. What was your event? Which stereotype does it try to combat? We also built on our learning about Online Safety, looking at how people’s online personas aren’t always representative of their reality. The lesson prompted some interesting conversations about how much we should trust about what we see online and how we shouldn’t take it at face value.
Our Year 6 production of The Tempest is shaping up nicely! The children have been hard at work learning their lines, choreographing dances, learning music and taking direction. Costume letters have been sent home this week (Wednesday 24th June) so please ask your child for this to give everyone enough time to get costumes organised for the performance.
A final note, due to the Hardelot trip, there has been no home learning set over the past few weeks. Home learning will resume once the second cohort are back.
We hope you have a great weekend!
Mrs Midgley.
