Latest news in Year 6

In year 6, we have been doing a new unit in literacy about Mount Everest . We have been describing Mount Everest using powerful vocabulary and fascinating facts. For example, did you know that the Himalayas 30 peaks tower over 24,000 feet. In maths, we have started a new unit which is Area and Perimeter. We have been trying to find out how to find perimeters in different shapes and using a formula (L x W) to find the answer for the area . In P.E we are doing ultimate frisbee and doing matches. On Thursday afternoon, the University of Hertfordshire came to our school this week and taught us a dance and a song that we have been practicing ready for a performance on Friday 7th March. Each class in Year 3 through to Year 6 performed the dances to everyone that we had learnt. They were based on the Wonders of the world. In Year 6 we learnt a song about Christ The Redeemer.
In Geography we are learning about the UK and the English counties and where they are located using an atlas.
