Hello from 6B!

Maths:

We have been focusing on time, algebra, co-ordinates and multiplication. We have also completed lots of maths challenges too.

 

Language

In Language this month we have been learning about apostrophes to show possession, subject and predicate and direct speech. We have been writing news articles and using our notes to help us do this. We created climate change leaflets which are part of a school display and completed a writer’s craft story.

RE:

We continued with the Pope Francis Faith Award focusing on the Gift of Knowledge. We delivered presentations to our classmates about our hobbies and created mind-maps about the skills we will need for our future career. We also compared our lives to those less fortunate than us. This week we will begin to focus on the Gift of Piety and will be making a surprise gift for our parents.

Canon Eddie came into our class and celebrated Mass with us which we really appreciated. He told us about his life as a priest and that he has met a Saint!

This Saturday is Saint Andrew’s day; we have been learning about his life in class.

ICT

In ICT we have been researching topics about Australia.

Australia

We each delivered a talk on a particular aspect of Australia. Topics ranged from animals, landmarks, cities, food and sports. We made amazing PowerPoint presentations and used note cards to deliver our talks.

 

Outdoor

We completed Beat the Street and are now enjoying activities in the upper forest. We have explored the forest, built cairns, walked in the river and played Kim’s game. This week we plan to build a house to accommodate a small forest animal.

 

Advent

This Sunday is the first Sunday of Advent. Our class are planning a special surprise for our parents which will be available for you to view online to help us to celebrate this special time of year.
