We’ve been learning about how to write in other languages and then looked at the artwork from those countries. We used a range of media to create a piece of art which incorporates a word written in the language to match the art style.
We helped an alien to navigate online games safely and happy. We recorded our online safety learning in our books. Many of us have learnt a lot about how to be safe online.
PC Viv came in to see years 5 and 6 and talk to us about how to be safe online. We found out about how to ensure our information is shared online and PC Viv told us to check our profiles to make sure they are private and not open to public viewing.
Year 5 and 6 children have been very inventive in their games this week in the wooded area on the field and creating obstacle course on the playground. They have also enjoyed some fab football games too.
Please go to our Y5/Y6 TEAMS chat on Hwb to access the work that we would like you to complete on Friday 7th January for home learning.ย Don’t forget to go on Emile and TT Rockstars to practise your tables, and Nessy to practise your spelling please!
Reading records will need to have 8 signatures in them when you return to school- if you have left your reading record at school then please make sure that you write down what you have read on a piece of paper and ask a grown up to sign to say that you have completed your reading each time.
Y5 and Y6 were invited up to John Beddoes to take part in music and PE lessons- we had a great time composing Chinese music and playing Secret Santa dodgeball!
Y5 and Y6 went down to the library to learn about British Sign Language- we found it really interesting and particularly enjoyed learning how to sign Christmas words and a Christmas song.
On Friday 10th December we learnt a lot about human rights and responsibilities. We found out how rights and responsibilities differ and what our rights are as children. We made people chains to celebrate how different people are in our community and around the world.
It was great to welcome back the Animal Man to Knighton. We enjoyed looking at a range of animals and learning more about Charles Darwin.
All children in year 5 and 6 engaged in science and technology activities. They made bath bombs following a BBC Good Food recipe. They planned and made packaging, thinking about what they should include on the packaging like attractive colours, designs and an ingredients list. Lucy said she enjoyed making her own products. Molly P said she liked working with other people. Freddie B said he liked measuring out and mixing to make the bath bombs. The children also looked at how different types of salt reacted in paint.
It was a very busy and productive day. We hope the children enjoyed using their products at home!
