27th to 30th June
We have had a busy week preparing for our school summer fair this Saturday.
Year 6 has the job of making games for the fair and everyone has had to work in teams to design and make the games, write instructions, test them (to find out expected scores and determine the levels for prizes) and finally make posters to attract customer interest. The theme of this year's games is "reuse and recycle" and one of the ideas is that all the games should have been made out of materials that have been used before.
We have had some time for some other work. We have done some of our own technology project, working on levers and mechanisms and we have also done some music (choosing instruments and beginning to create our film score) and history. We have learned about Aztec farming (including how they built their chinampas) and about how children were brought up in Aztec times.
We have had our SATS results back and have been very pleased with our success.
