9.1.25

 Year 6,

Welcome back! This week you have inferred the start of a story from pictures and created expanded phrases in English, and have begun working on ratio in maths. In PSHE you have finished the Celebrating Differences topic, which ended with a conversation (which was introduced with your own discussions) around migration, illegal migration, refugees and the appearance of flags last year - you were incredibly sensible when discussing such a sensitive topic. You have looked at and labelled the regions of the UK in geography and set yourself goals for the year too.

Next week, in English, you will be writing an introduction to the story and begin reading the actual one. In maths, you will continue to learn about ratio and apply it to scale drawings. in science, you will begin our new topic of 'Light' (please try to bring in an empty cereal box for Wednesday), and in PSHE you will consider how to achieve the goals you set this week. Weather depending, there is a chance we may undertake some fieldwork for geography next week, but we will see nearer the time.
