Following our maths lesson today, we spun the ‘reflective protocol wheel’ and reflected on the lesson by noticing, wondering and questioning our understanding:
I am so proud of the Y6 children and the work they’ve been doing online. After the maths lesson today, the children reflected upon their learning by collaborating on a Jamboard. How impressive is this??!! Click the image and take a look…
Year 6 loved their hook lesson where we introduced our new English text Skellig! We looked at cut up pieces of the front cover and built up our prediction over each image. We then looked at the film cover to give us some more clues!
I was so impressed with the predictions and the links that were made to our previous learning. Both the in school learning and the home learning was AMAZING! Well done everyone!
 
 
Lots of research taking place this morning about the Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age! Â Who will use the key vocabulary we discussed yesterday?
I received a lovely photo from Noah who went for a walk in Thorne Community Woods to find our Y5/6 product! Noah and his brother are stood proudly next to the board which features his slogan ‘This is our home, please leave it alone!’
Don’t forget to keep an eye out for our boards! Can you find all 6 boards in the woods? Send us some pictures if you do!
Can you guess what our new expedition is?

As part of hook week, we have researched cave paintings and then completed some of our own! These will be added to our classroom environments to continue to immerse our classrooms!
This morning, I had the great pleasure of going to Thorne community woods to see our final product. All the propaganda art work looks amazing and the QR codes which takes us to the site all work. On there you can see all the children’s amazing work throughout this expedition.
I would like to give a huge shout out to all the children in Y5/6 who have worked so hard throughout this expedition which we started all the way back in August! Despite COVID restrictions not allowing us to go on school visits the children have really embraced our Autumn expedition and I am really proud of their work on the product and the google site.
Well done Y5/6 and have a fantastic Christmas holidays. You all deserve it.
Crew 5/6
Crew Knowles enjoyed a Christingle lesson today where we learnt all about the meaning of Christingle and why it is a traditional Christmas celebration.
The lesson was delivered by our class councillor – Corey. Corey used lots of protocols throughout his lesson and delivered a successful silent discussion as well as a whip around! Well done, Corey! You were a super teacher and I think you could give me a run for my money!
