After a busy and exciting week at Sayers Croft, Year 6 are settling back into school life and have been working hard in all their subjects.
In History, we are learning about how and why children were evacuated from London and other cities during World War II. We recalled what we had learned at Sayers Croft about the lives of evacuees who lived there during World War II. We are looking forward to meeting Kitty (Miss C’s mum who was an evacuee) when she comes to tell us about her experiences.
In Geography, we conducted part two of our facilities and traffic survey, this time on Marylebone High Street. The drivers were very friendly and we were thrilled to get lots of waving and hooting as well as lots of smiles and waves from pedestrians as well! Once back at school, we compared and contrasted our results with the results of our fieldwork study in Ewhurst last week. We also created accurate, detailed maps of Ewhurst, putting into practice our knowledge of map reading, using compass directions, understanding scale as well as recognising Ordinance survey symbols. Next, we will build on our knowledge of 4 figure grid references by learning about 6 figure grid references and using them to describe the location of key places on our maps.
In Religious Education, we started our new topic of ‘Creation and Covenant’ by studying the second creation story in Genesis 2 and 3. We created art work to show our understanding and reflected on what the symbols in the scripture teach us about God’s relationship with his people.
In P.E, we took part in a bleep test. played handball and also enjoyed a whole morning playing Cricket in Regents Park with Coach Rosie from M.C.C.
In addition to all of this hard work, we have been learning our assembly songs, practising Place Value in Maths and diary writing in English and also enjoying lessons in Music, Computing and Science .
Well done for hard work so far, Year 6. Have a lovely weekend, everyone!
