What a busy week we have had in P6B!

The Royal Navy led a STEM workshop which was fantastic! We created our own circuit boards with motors, used VR headsets to experience flying a fighter jet, programmed Spheros, learned about hydraulics and there was a TV which showed us the inside of a submarine. Thank you for coming to Crookfur Primary School!

In French we have been learning how to say parts of the human body. It has been very fun because we have learned how to sing heads, shoulders, knees and toes in French. We also played Simon Says which challenged us to listen to the instructions in French and touch different parts of the body. Mr Atkinson also read out colours in French and we had to hunt around the class for objects which matched the colours. After the games we labelled a human body diagram in French and next week we are going to write descriptions of monsters in French. This will give us an opportunity to combine our prior knowledge of numbers and colours with our human body vocabulary.

In writing this week we had the option to write a story on either the Loch Ness Monster or living in Brazil. There were some fantastic ideas such as the Loch Ness monster escaping and people learning to play football on the streets of Brazil and being scouted to play for famous clubs.

This week we also went across to Eastwood High School for a P.E. session with their sports leaders. It was great fun!

Mr Atkinson’s Comment

What a great week we have had! The weather hasn’t be kind to us lately so could I please remind everyone to bring the appropriate clothing to school (jackets and a change of shoes). The staff in the Eastwood High School P.E. department wanted me to remind everyone that they must bring in the correct P.E. kit to fully participate in the upcoming lessons.
