P.6/5 pupils and teachers ended on a high today, what a way to end a term! Have a browse through our end of term treat photos below 😆 Well done everyone, enjoy your well earned rest! 🌟
This week our pupils produced their HOT PIECE and reflected on their own tales, self assessing. Pupils then shared their work with their peers.
Hear some of what they had to say below 🙌🏻😊
So far in term one, pupils from both P.6/5 classes have enjoyed exploring the text ‘Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone’ by JK Rowling.
Each week pupils take part in a reading activity based on Chapters of the novel, from Blooms questions, to writing newspaper articles, to role play!
We have also carried out experiments in class, making potions, exploring invisible ink and have even designed and created our own wands! ✨

Hear and listen, my weary warriors and we’ll tell you a tale of P.6/5 and their amazing writing skills!
In term one, pupils have been focusing on ‘Defeating a Monster’ tale BEOWULF!
Pupils have loved learning about the Anglo- Saxon period when this tale was based and have learned appropriate literary techniques to enhance their own tales, such as ‘kennings’.
Imitation
During the imitation stage, pupils created their own detailed story maps to help them remember the tale. Pupils also focused on techniques used to create suspense in a text and how to incorporate similes, metaphors, alliteration and repetition into their tales.
Innovation
Pupils then got creative and innovated the tale as a class, in pairs and finally individually! Their unique twists were fantastic. Check out the post-it note covered tales below 🙂
Independently
Pupils closely followed the structure for a ‘defeating a monster tale’ to write their very own tale BURSTING with the techniques explored throughout the term.
Everyone enjoyed showing off their hard work with their peers, providing positive feedback to one another.
Well done, warriors! 🙌🏻🌟😆⚔️
