Geography in Class 6
admin on: Class 6
Here are some photos of some of the geography we have been up to in the last couple of weeks. The children recreated how fold mountains are formed by plate tectonics using large pieces of card. Then, later in the geography topic, the children went out on a 'field trip'... to the school field! They sketched the landscape they could see and then labelled it with physical features of geography.
World Book Day

Class 6 were invited to the World Book Day tea party to read our guided reading book, 'Wonder'. They ate some lovely cakes that were brought in by the children and had juice and hot chocolate. It was a great morning and the children seemed to enjoy doing guided reading this way! Shame we can't do it this way every session! Here are some photographs:

This week, in Class 6, we started our new topic, 'Millions of Years', the children started by looking at geological periods from the Cambrian Period right up until the Quaternary Period that we live in now. They also began looking at continental drift and how the continents have changed over time.
Also, the children have been planning to write a narrative based on The Dark Horse and in maths the children have looked at factors and multiples.
In PE, the children have started a new gymnastics unit where they are building on lots of skills that they have learnt across the last three years in gymnastics.
Cooking in Y6

This week, to finish our Jamaica topic, the children made their own 'Jerk Seasoning' by mixing a variety of different herbs and spices. They then rubbed this on some corn-on-the-cob and fried it. To accompany this, they made traditional Jamaican rice and peas. They had lots of fun making it, but I think the spice was a bit too much for some when it came to trying it!

In the last couple of weeks, the class have done a variety of activities.
In science, last week, they went out looking for invertebrates. They had to classify them into different phylums (according to the Linnaeus classification system).
Also, the children acted out a seen from the book, The Dark Horse. The scenes were very dramatic!
