What have Y6 been up to?
Autumn Term
Week 4
In PE, we are completing a 'Leadership in PE' unit, in which we all have to take turns leading our teams in different elements of a PE lesson: warm-up, stretches, skills focus, main activity and cool down.
This has provided a great challenge to all of us, as trying to get our peers to listen and follow instructions can be quite tricky!! So far we have focussed on the leadership skills of confidence, directing people, positivity and adaptability. Talk to us about how we are improving as leaders, as it is really noticeable week by week how much development there is.
Week 3
Year 6 continue to impress with their excellent behaviour and attitudes! Well done to 6W for the massive improvement in homework completion - catching up with 6Cs super effort last week.
Thank you to everyone who attended the Y6 Sats information evening on Friday. It is wonderful to see how invested you are in your child's success, and we are excited to work together with you and your child this year to ensure they achieve their goals.
The CGP revision books discussed should be available of ParentPay in the coming week, but if you have any questions about this, please contact us at school.
For anyone who missed the meeting, here is the Powerpoint that was shared. If you have any questions, please see a team member at the classroom door, or email at [email protected]
SATs information evening for parents
Week 2
This week has seen us really get stuck into our learning, and with a continued fantastic attitude! In English, we have been writing some fabulously moving descriptions of 'The Piano' by Aiden Gibbons. Have a look at this link if you would like to talk about it more with your child.
We have also really enjoyed starting our class book - Holes by Louis Sachar. This is a fabulously engaging book, which inspired lots of drama when we took it in turns to 'hot seat' as the main character, Stanley, shortly after arriving at the juvenile detention centre, Camp Green Lake.
Week 1
What a fantastic start Year 6 have made!! It may have only been 3 days, but wow...we achieved so much.
All Year 6s now have jobs and responsibilities to support the whole Dothill team, and we cannot wait to see them flourish and develop into the fabulous role models we know they are.
Please don't forget the 'Meet the Teacher' event after school on Monday, where we will be available to answer any questions.
