Welcome to P6!!
Look at our WONDERFUL P6 children!
03.09.24- P6 have enjoyed their first trip to the school library, they found lots of interesting books. We discussed the blurb, author, illustrator, content page and cover.
09.09.24- P6- have been developing their fundamental movements in PE lessons. We have been working on our balance, coordination, strength and our accuracy. We had great fun taking part in this circuit.
20.09.24- Today the P6 voted for and elected their peers as the school council representatives. Well done Thomas and Hope
WAU TOPIC- VIKING ART, P6 have been having lots of fun designing and creating their own Viking Shields. Today went outside for some photos in the sun and pretended to be Vikings. We have been learning about the Viking raids on Lindisfarne, how they travelled, what they ate and how the Vikings behaved. Top work P6.
02/10/24- P6 used an ICT app called Just2Easy today to input our data to the frequency table and then create a graph, we had to change the titles, change bar chart colours to suit and the font to make our work more appealing and eye catching.
Next we typed suitable questions linked to our graphs for our peers to answer. Great teamwork and ICT skills developing in P6.
Kindness Week- WC 30th Sept- To mark Kindness week in P6 we completed lots of PDMU and had an fun art lesson. Our moto was to 'spread kindness like confetti'. Mrs White brought in tea and biscuits for the pupils after a busy week. All children enjoyed this time to chat with each other and relax.
‘No Act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted’. Aesop
09.10.24- P6 Enjoyed their first visit to the Library. We learnt about how the books are organised and how to navigate the library. We completed a quiz and sorted authors into alphabetical order and listened to a chapter of a book. Some pupils even got to borrow books to take home. Well Done P6.
10.10.24 World Mental Health Day- to recognise this day in school, we started off with completing our spellings and tables outside in the fresh air, using chalk, then we peer marked our work. This was great fun for everyone and no marking for the staff :)
We then competed a Core PE Live Workout with over 178 schools via zoom. P6 have been learning the importance and ways to look after our Mental Health during our comprehension lesson this week.
Today P6 became investigators. We first predicted what materials thought would float and what would sink before carrying out the activity. We then discussed what materials would be suitable to make a Viking Longboat. We then worked in small crews to build a ship from a range of materials and used selotape to make it waterproof. P6 had a great afternoon testing the longboats. We then added weigh to the longboats to tests the boat building skills.
24.10.24- Today we used chalks to draw our own Viking longboats with a sunset background. This was great fun as we used tissues and our fingers to blend the background and used pencils and markers to add detail. Top work P6.
23/10/24- To celebrate World Book Week- P6 went to the library- We completed colouring pages about World Book Week and were challenged to find specific books within the library.
12.11.24- To mark Anti Bullying Week in Central we all wore odd socks. This provided a great talking point and and gave all pupils the opportunity to express themselves and celebrate their individuality and recognise that we are all unique.
12.11.24- Today P6 pupils took part in a 'Smokebusters' workshop delivered by zoom. This workshop helps to equip pupils with the knowledge and skills to resist the temptation to smoke/vape and remain smoke free throughout their lives. We looked at what temptation looks and role played different scenarios.
We discussed how we can become addicted to many things such as screens, foods, drinks etc. We also practiced the skill of saying no to temptation and selecting an alternative or healthier life choice.
13.11.24- Today P6 joined HIP Psychology on an Anti-Bullying workshop. This was a brilliant undertaking for our pupils with the theme ‘Together Stronger’. The workshop guided the children through many scenarios of bullying in an engaging and informative manner. The format of the session was delivered interactively via Zoom with the Kahoot app adding to the connected experience.
26.11.24 – P6 took part in a workshop with Bryson Pathways as part of their Living Well Programme. P6 learnt about the amount of sugar in different foods and drinks and how this has an impact on our teeth. They also went outside for a jog and were then able to keep track of how many calories they burnt using a Fit bit provided by Bryson!
29.12.2024 - P6 had great fun helping put up our class Christmas tree!
December 2024- World Around Us- As part of our topic 'Titanic', pupils were set the task to create a cabin within the ship. Mr. Belch has then very kindly put them together for a gigantic display. The pupils are really enjoying this topic and have been researching and developing so many skills.
