In our English lessons, we wrote instructions for making a Christmas
card. We then tested them out and edited them. Emily made her
instructions into a video for others to follow. She hopes others will
find it useful.
Welcome to the Year Six website. On this website, we will be sharing examples of our children's work. This page is a workshop containing examples of learning in action. The work will not be the children's 'final draft’.

6MR DT Lego rides
What a creative two weeks!
The children first, in teams, discussed ideas before coming up with a solid plan for their Lego theme park rides. This was inspired by our September trip to LegoLand.
The children then start to construct their rides and were given a motor to include some motion.
They then used a coding program to communicate with their ride.
Below are some video clips to demonstrate their successes!

Year Six Science Day!
Last week, our Year Six children enjoyed a fantastic science day!
In maths, they learnt that in just one cell of their body, the DNA would stretch to 2m! They were then set on a mission to find how far their DNA would stretch if they were to use all of the cells in their body!
We were very lucky to have a visitor come and deliver a science DNA workshop too. The children learnt about what DNA is and the structure of it. They then got to extract the DNA out of a strawberry. They were fascinated by the end result! A big thank you to MundiPharma for visiting and delivering the workshop! What an experience for the children!
Part of the day was also setting the children off to plan, set up and carry out their own scientific investigation as independent scientists. They were told they needed to investigate light and shadow. It was lovely seeing their great team work, applying scientific skills and reviewing their learning from Year 3 & 5 too!
Below are a range of photos from throughout the day.

Year Six Read to Year Three
As part of our recent writing, we wrote morality tales in the style of Charlie and Lola stories. Once finished, we read our stories to Year Three pupils. We think they enjoyed them!
