Month: September 2017

In health and wellbeing, we have been learning about SHANARRI which means safe, healthy, achieving, nurtured, active, respected, responsible and included.

This week we also went to the Alec caravan where we learned about friendship and drugs. We got to meet Harold the giraffe!!

This week in maths we started learning about additions and how to use different ways to find the answer.

We have new reading buddies for paired reading which happens on a Friday. Some people have two and some people have one.

We also have done a listening task. Miss Lardenois gave us instructions for colouring in, drawing, writing and we had to follow them carefully. It was fun.

 

Thanks for reading,

 

Your class bloggers of the week: Annabel and Lewis

“Hello” and welcome to P6L’s Blog, This week’s bloggers are Eva and Rachel. We are going to talk to you about what’s been happening in P6L this week.

On Wednesday the 13^th of September it was Roald Dahl day and we watched a clip on how Roald Dahl became a famous author and where he wrote his books and it was very interesting. We got to find out what Rohl Dahl character we were: Rachel was like Matilda and Charlie and I was Matilda. Roald Dahl afternoon was fun!

In class we are also writing a whole class letter to a French class and the French class will write back to us in French. P6L are all really excited to learn about our French Pen pals!

In reading we have started a book called “The boy who swam with Piranhas”. The main character is called Stan and his Uncle runs a fish factory in their house and Stan has to sleep in a cupboard, a bit like Harry potter! Stan’s uncles house smells like FISH! But one day, on Stan’s birthday, his Aunt Annie wants to get Stan a treat so she steps up to Uncle Ernie and gets Stan a day off. Stan goes to the Fair that’s just arrived in their town. There he sees a hook-a-duck stall and wants to save the goldfish that are dying. We are eager to read more!

Thank you for reading P6L’s blog, please read next weeks blog!

Welcome back to school and in to P6!  I hope you had a lovely summer break and are ready for the beginning of another busy school year. Here is some information that you will hopefully find useful.

 

This term we will be learning about science with a focus on the Solar System and how eclipses happen. We will be reading The Boy Who Swam with Piranhas by David Almond as our class novel and will be using it to develop our reading skills.

In P6L this year there is also a ‘Star of the week’ certificate that will be given to a pupil who has shown great effort and commitment in their learning.

We learn every day about maths, literacy skills but each day brings a different exciting lesson:

Monday	Art with Mr Potter
Tuesday	Hip-Hop with Miss Miller STAR reading
Wednesday	Science with Mr Potter French
Thursday	Spanish with Mr Potter
Friday	Paired Reading Assembly / House Hobbies ICT

Although this term P6 will be learning Hip-Hop on a Tuesday we will make the most of any opportunities to be active, including a daily MillOMile so please ensure you have appropriate footwear in school at all times.

 Please could you make sure that your child has the following items in school every day:

• Indoor and outdoor P.E. kit (if the weather is nice we will go outside)
• Rainy day activity
• Water bottle (optional)
• Quiet reading book
• Home-school notebook
