We’ve had lots of fun this week as we learned about length and height in our maths sessions. We compared some objects in our classroom and measured them using non-standard measurements such as wooden sticks, paper clips and blocks. We even compared ourselves!

We found out that Mikayla is tallest in our class and that Leven is the smallest!

Great job as usual, superstars x

We hooked into our expedition today by completing jigsaws of our new text and writing a diary entry as Paddington to tell what he had seen on his trip to the Tower of London. We then got out our counting collections and investigated different ways to group and share the objects.

Fantastic effort class 6!

We finished the Easter week by flying in our own imaginary spaceship to the outer edges of our universe and used our crafting skills to make the rockets that we travelled in. We then went on an exciting exploration through the rain forest, cutting down trees and dodging wild animals and enormous spiders and snakes! To finish our immersion we made maps to show our journey and binoculars and compasses to help us navigate on our adventures. We even found time to make yummy rice crispy buns and super cute ‘bunny bottom’ Easter cards. Phew! We’ve had such good fun and can’t wait to begin our new expedition!

Have an amazing Easter weekend everyone

Lots of love from Class 6!

We’ve been having a wonderful time in class 6 since coming back to begin the summer term We had some marvelous mathmeticians with hugely improved scores in our weekly Magic Maths test and we were introduced to our final Y1 expedition – North, South, East, West. Where will your journey take you?

So far we have watched a film clip of Paddington’s journey to London from Peru and then drew pictures of him to add to different destinations, and in today’s activity we began by going on an open-top bus tour of some of London’s most famous landmarks and then made collages of the 3 monarchs’ incredible journeys that we will be learning about – Henry VIII, Victoria and Queen Elizabeth II.

Thanks to Mrs Clay and Mrs Stone our classroom already looks amazing but we can’t wait to see our own artwork proudly displayed.

Watch this space for the rest of the week’s activities!
