Year Six 2021-22

We have mixed tints, tones and shades of blue to show how we can create atmosphere like in Magritte’s ‘Beautiful World’.

We completed our artist research page on the Surrealist painter Rene Magritte, who we are using for inspiration in our painting unit.

We have looked at The websites from Young Minds and Childline.
We created posters to show how children can get help.

We have used loops and nested loops to create interesting designs!

We have learnt about how tectonic plates move to cause earthquakes and volcanoes. We modelled divergent, convergent and transform faults with Oreo biscuits! The biscuits represented the lithosphere and the asthenosphere.

We started our decimal place value unit by exploring decimal numbers with concrete resources.
We had different representations for a whole, and therefore different representations of tenths, hundredths and thousandths.

We started our brand new spelling program. We investigated and discussed ‘ie’ and ‘ei’ spellings.
