Spring Term

In PSHE, 6N were learning about the importance of being careful when sharing information online. We dramatised how how quickly information posted online can go viral.

Don’t forget: never share anything that might hurt or embarrass someone. Remember that once it has been shared it is difficult to remove – so think before you click!

After a few shares by online friends, this is how many people could see what you have shared online

Linked to our Maya History topic, 6N had an interesting week discovering the origins of chocolate, part of this was doing a taste test of different chocolate recipes - all with different degrees of cacao - from 100% cacao to 23% cacao in milk chocolate. Taste buds were certainly challenged!

6N re-capped how to make series and parallel circuits. Then they conducted fair tests - answering questions such 'Will the bulb become less bright if I add more bulbs to my circuit?'

What a cracking afternoon of DT Year 6 - with the help of family and friends. Everyone was busy/productive and there was a great team spirit. We will complete our projects tomorrow - the aim being to make a fairground ride that turns (using an electrical circuit). Thank you to everyone who came along to join in the 'fairground fun'!

6N had a brilliant time at Tropical World, comparing tropical rainforests with our own temperate rainforest. The children could not believe how humid the air is in a tropical climate. We saw lots of different rainforest plants and animals in their natural habitat and discussed how they have adapted to this environment. This was a great start to our Rainforest topic.
