Welcome back to the P6B blog!

We started the week by creating our very own superhero based stories. First we had to draw our heroes and describe their costumes and powers. Afterwards we created a plot which was about our superhero solving a problem that their archenemy had created!

Following our writing session we then separated into our reading groups to review our current books. We were investigating key story elements such as characterization, settings, themes, problems and resolutions. To record all this information we created spider-diagrams which we had to then share with Mr Atkinson and the rest of the class.

This week we started using Google Classroom to help record what natural disaster we would like to learn in an excel spreadsheet. We are going to start using Google classroom in maths, writing, reading and social studies.

We also had took part in the Strictly for Kids fundraising session. Our instructor taught us dance routine which was difficult at first but we all really enjoyed it – even Mr Atkinson and Mrs Norman joined in!

On Friday during our Health and Wellbeing session we discussed what are the traits of a good friend and we linked it to our school values. Next we spoke about what feelings we might experience during a natural disaster to help us with our upcoming writing on living through a natural disaster.

Mr Atkinson’s comment

It was a busy first week for all of P6B! We have all moved onto new topics in our maths and making excellent progress in our reading books. Well done to everyone for their participation in the Strictly for Kids fundraising session. Over the course of next week I will be announcing the ECO community.
