Welcome to our Year 6 page. Here, you’ll find snippets of what we are getting up to in and out of class. Parents, remember there’s lots more to see on your child’s Seesaw.
Times Tables Rock Stars - England Rocks
Today, Year 6 took part in ‘England Rocks’ - a national online times table competition. A great way to boost maths confidence, accuracy and recall speed, whilst also having fun!
Year 6 Guitarists
In Year 6, we have a group of budding musicians. They have lessons every Tuesday and are enjoying practising their instruments and developing their talents. Learning a musical instrument has many benefits: it improves the memory; stimulates creativity; teaches patience; boosts confidence and enhances social skills. The children hope to showcase their talents with a series of concerts throughout the school year. Stay tuned!
Switched On! Workshop
Today, Year 6 were visited by Ian from Electricity North West. He delivered a hands-on workshop called “Switched On!” The children learnt about electrical circuits, insulators/conductors and staying safe around electricity. They then had a go at building simple, series and parallel circuits, and recorded how the brightness of a lamp or the volume of a buzzer was affected by the number of cells used in the circuit. The various challenges inspired the children to become creative thinkers and confident problem solvers!
