We have had a whirlwind first two weeks in Year 6! We have enjoyed getting to know eachother and reminding ourselves of school routines after the long break. In Maths, we have been revisiting place value, while in Writing we have begun our new poetry unit about the wind! We loved using our new knowledge from Geography (on grid references and coordinates) on our trip today to the Meanwood Valley Trail. We also used our classification knowledge to identify various plant and animal life in the clearing. A special shout out to Matas from Miss Davies’ group for finding a wide range of unusual creatures and even some treasure!

We have also had the pleasure of meeting our buddies this week. Although some were feeling a little shy, they soon warmed up to their Year 6 buddy. Some read with their buddies, while others did some arts and crafts. (Photos to follow in the next post…)
