Term 1
We have an exciting and busy term ahead in Year 6! Across the curriculum, children will be developing their knowledge, skills and independence as they begin their final year of primary school. Our learning will be full of opportunities to challenge ourselves, work collaboratively and think creatively.
In English, we will be reading and writing adventure stories, exploring how authors create suspense and excitement for their readers. We will also develop our non-fiction writing through the study of biographies.
In Maths, we will focus on place value, addition and subtraction, and multiplication, building strong foundations for the more advanced concepts we will encounter later in the year.
Our Science learning will explore Evolution and Inheritance, where children will discover how living things adapt and how characteristics can be passed from one generation to the next.
In Geography, we will investigate Natural Resources, considering where the materials and energy we rely on come from and why they are important.
Through Computing, we will learn about computers past, present and future, while continuing to develop our understanding of online safety and responsible digital citizenship.
In Art, we will study the work of Leonardo da Vinci, exploring his creativity, innovation and lasting influence on the world.
Our PE lessons will focus on fitness and rugby, helping children develop teamwork, resilience and physical confidence.
In PSHE, our topic is Being Me in My World, where we will explore belonging, responsibility, rights and respect within our school community.
We will also be learning about Buddhist worship and beliefs in RE, exploring different faith perspectives and traditions. In Spanish, children will begin by exploring a Spanish town, developing their vocabulary and conversational skills.
To enrich our learning, Year 6 will take part in a residential visit, providing opportunities for teamwork, independence and unforgettable experiences outside the classroom.
We look forward to a fantastic term of learning, growth and achievement together!
