Crew Mumby write as scientists!
Last week, Crew Mumby wrote like scientists in their touchdown pieces of writing. Some children chose to write up an experiment based on air resistance whilst others chose to write about water resistance. We talked about the formality of the piece, ensuring we included scientific vocabulary and that scientific theories were explained clearly. Our reports included data that we had collected in our science lessons which also supported our conclusions. I have really enjoyed reading these this weekend, Crew Mumby- Great work!
Bikeability
A great time was had by all Y6 children who undertook the Bikeability program. Bikeability has equipped our children with the skills and confidence to ride safely on the roads. Thank you to the Morris and the team from Bikeability who have spent 2 weeks at Green Top developing these important life skills with our Y6 children.
Place Value Revision (Y6)
We had a number of requests for additional homework at our Y6 network. As we have just finished our ‘place value’ unit of study, I have complied questions from previous test papers for children to complete at home. You should find a range of questions linked to place value, ordering numbers, negative numbers and rounding.
Share any photos or work to [email protected] as we like to celebrate hard work in our phase community meetings
Thanks, Mr Mumby

Y5/6 Expedition Homework Menu
Hi, please find the Y5/6 homework menu attached. In addition, reading is a vital life skill, please support us by listening to your child at least 3 times a week. As SATs is fast approaching, reading daily will support your child’s reading fluency and accuracy. Books read at home can contribute to your child’s Accelerated Reader data.
