Year 6
Year 6 News & Dates - A Fun Spring Half Term
This half term is all about SATs! As May 12th approaches, we will keep revising and building up our confidence for the tests. As well as this, we are writing a newspaper article, learning about variation and adaptation in science and printing in art and design. It’s a very short half term, but it will be action packed! And then… we have to think about the big transition to High School! :-O
Learning for Summer 1.
In English we are writing newspaper articles, while in Art we will try our hand at printing. Science is all about how living things have adapted and evolved over time. We are revising and preparing for SATS week, 12th May to 15th May! Good luck Y6!
