Year 5 - RE
In RE, we continued our study of the Easter story. After summarising the story, each child chose six key elements of the story to draw a picture of and explore its significance to Christians or the Easter story. The focus was on the theme of Jesus’ victory over death and sin alongside children’s personal connections to the story.
Year 6 - Football
Today in PE, Year 6 focused on developing their football skills, with a particular emphasis on technique and maintaining position during play. The children worked hard to keep possession, demonstrating control, awareness and teamwork throughout the session. The children practised accurate passing, movement off the ball and supporting their teammates to create space and build play effectively. A key focus was understanding positioning, helping the children to stay organised and make better decisions during small sided games.
Year 6 - Measuring Angles
Today in Year 6, the children focused on developing their understanding of measuring angles and calculating missing angles within triangles. Using protractors, they worked carefully to measure angles with increasing accuracy and precision. The class applied their knowledge of the properties of triangles, knowing that angles within a triangle add up to 180°, to solve a range of problems. The children demonstrated great focus when aligning their protractors correctly and reading scales accurately, showing a growing confidence in their mathematical skills.
