This week in Year 6...

Date: 20th Nov 2024 @ 2:51pm

We are having a fabulous week in Year 6. Children have started writing diaries from the perspective of a child in Britain at the start of the Second World War.  Children carried out some drama to explore the feelings and emotions of people at this time. 

In maths we have been continuing our learning about fractions, this week focussing on Fractions, Decimals and Percenatages. Children have been converting between fractions, decimals and percentages, as well as ordering Fractions decimals and percentages.  The children have worked so hard at remembering the different techniques and how to apply these. 

In Topic we have been researching the different decades of the Twentieth Century and finding out about different inventions.  The children have been fascinated to hear all about a casette player, that we only had four channels to watch on television in the 1980s and that the internet wasn't invented until the 1990s.  Could you tell your child about how things have changed over your lifetime until now?
