Well done to Noah who created a great poster for Reading Week based on one of his favourite books!
He also dressed as this character on our dress up day! Great job, Noah!

Just a reminder to all of Year 5/6 parents that the ‘Hearts for Doncaster’ dress up event will take place tomorrow. Please find a copy of the letter below for more information.
In English today, we looked at pulling out the features of an informal letter. The children blew me away spotting the different Y6 features including hyphenated words, dashes between two clauses and informal phrases to name just a few!
This week, the children have been studying some of the photographs that have been taken during the pandemic. They then used these as inspiration to create and edit photos of their own. What’s amazing is how creative the children have been with some of the photographs and ideas they come up with. Take a look at some of their amazing work.
Recently we have been looking at recounts in different forms and this week we focused on blog entries. Before we wrote our blogs, we identified the different features that needed to be used by looking at good examples. We then planned our blogs ready to write! I wonder whose blog entry makes it into our book!
Mr Taylor planned a great lesson today where the children had to edit photographs to match a set criteria. They had to make photographs look like they were taken at night, taken somewhere tropical or even taken in the middle of autumn! I was SO impressed with the results! Well done guys!
Wow! What a lovely morning we had getting muddy down at Thorne Community Woods! The Y6s took some AMAZING photographs has part of our photography case study ans we can’t wait for you to see them!
Here is a sneak preview of the children taking their snapshots! Can you spot which angles they are using?
Don’t forget to click on the pictures to make them bigger!
……..take some amazing photographs!
Yesterday year 6 took their photography skills to the woods. They captured different images focusing on perspective, framing and varied angles. We are looking forward to collating their images and ‘showing them off’!
Which images will be published in our year 5/6 book?
I was very impressed with the photography that took place in Years 5 and 6 during our hook week after Easter. Today we started case study 2 – art / photography, and the work that the Year 6 children have produced hasn’t disappointed!
We began by recapping the different angles and techniques that can be used when taking the perfect photograph. We then completed a silent discussion to critique emotive images that were taken during the pandemic to capture emotions that people were experiencing.
The children then spent time recreating some of the images focusing on the angles, the mood and the effects of the photograph.
I can’t wait to see their work progress over the next few weeks and what they capture to be published in our Year 5/6 book. Well done all!
