It’s been a fun and busy start to the new year in P6b!

Throughout the week we have been looking at the importance of rights and responsibilities and this helped to inform our class charter and classroom jobs. We also looked at the relationship this shares with democracy as we voted for our class novel and discussed the upcoming opportunity for one child to be elected to our student council.

Revising key concepts learnt last year was our main focus in maths, with a particular focus on using the column method for multiplication and the bus stop method for division. Furthermore, in literacy we wrote a passage detailing what we did and enjoyed over the summer holidays.

The children have really been enjoying reading this week; we are ploughing our way through Danny the Champion of the World which we have been using to bolster and extend our already impressive vocabulary.

Lastly, we have begun looking at the rainforest as part of our topic for the first term which has involved investigating where rainforests are and the animals and plants which live within them.

All in all it has been a fantastic week, well done for working so hard and making me proud, P6b! 🙂
