WK 2 Ready

We are excited for our second week of our Summer 2 term.

Half Term Project – My Hero

For our final half-term project, I would like the children to think about their real-life superhero. This could be a relative, a friend, a neighbour or celebrity/ famous person who has genuinely inspired them. The children will be asked to create a brief fact-file about this person  (when and where they were born, achievements, interesting facts and reasons why they are their heroes). We are going to be encouraging the children to interview (if possible) their real-life heroes in class so prepare yourself for an interview!

*Please note that we have explained to the children that their heroes cannot be fictional characters.

Return Deadline for this project will be the final week of the term.

Production

As our Year 6 production begins, please ask your children about costumes, props or resources that they may need.

Information sheets and resources to be shared during the following weeks. Please look out for any correspondence from the school or class teacher.

PE Timetable

 Fifth (SATs) Week Back: Completed 

Half Term Project – My 1, 5 and 10 Year Plan -  Due Friday 22nd May

Due to a timetabling error on my part, the date for the half-term project has been brought forward to this Friday. I have already spoken to the class about expectations so please remind the children that they can either present using the computer, a poster or orally.

For this half-term project, we are going to be exploring life after Little Heath Primary School. In class we have started thinking about what we would like to do in the future, from achieving targets by July to life in our 20s. I would like the children to create a three-part presentation which explains their goals for a year from now, five years from now and ten years from now. They can consider potential learning targets, new behaviours, hobbies and even careers. It is important that the children research what each goal or target entails (qualifications, personal attributes, time spent to achieve, cost implications, etc.). Each presentation should be no more than 2-3 minutes so please don’t worry about preparing mountains of information. Remember that this is all about the children considering and understanding what they need to do to reach their own aims.

We will be presenting our plans this week.

Throughout the day, the children will be taking part in a range of fun, cultural activities. Each class will enjoy a flamenco workshop, giving them the opportunity to experience traditional Spanish dance and music.

Children are invited to come to school wearing Spanish colours (red and yellow) or Spanish-themed clothing.
