Key Information

6KP have outdoor P.E. on a Monday and indoor P.E. on a Wednesday.

6KP's entrance and exit points are in the main school playground. At the end of the day, children will be released from the door onto the playground.

Term 1

This term, Year 6 are going to be looking at the enquiry 'What have the Victorians taught us about working life?'.

Through this enquiry, we will be looking at two Global Goals: Goal 8 - Decent work and economic growth and Goal 10 - Reduced inequalities. Throughout the enquiry, we will be focusing on developing our skills are historians. As well as this, we are going to be immersing ourselves in the book Cogheart, using this to enhance our writing and to further immerse ourselves into the Victorian era.

Being orators

This week, we had the opportunity to share ur amazing work with children from 6KP! In order to be ready for our Oracy Open Classrooms on Tuesday, we split our class in half and went to present our favourite piece of work with children in the other class. We spoke about things that we liked about our work as well as how we could improve it next time. 

Being writers

This term, we have been looking at writing a persuasive advert. In order to this, we looked at a range of different persuasive techniques, one of which was looking at adverbs of possiblity. We went outside onto the playground to decide the degree of how likely something was to happen based on the adverb of possiblity that was used. We had a scale of 0% to 100% and we ran to the percentage we thought best fit the word. 

Being theologians

This term in RE, we have been answering the question 'What does it mean to be a Muslim in Britain today?'. In order to show off everything that we have learned throughout the term, today we became radio hosts. In pairs, one of us was a radio host and the other was a modern-day Muslim. We took turns asking and answering the questions, using our knowledge and our RE books to support our answers. We asked questions about the 5 pillars, Mecca, Ramadan and different mosques.

Being historians

In order to engage ourselves in our new enquiry, we spent some time playing Victorian games and looking through Victorian adverts to compare how they are different from the games and adverts we see and use today. To start, we played some games, including pass the slipper and Reverend Crawley's game. When we were playing them, we realised that some of them were quite similar to modern games that we play. For example, pass the slipper is very similar to pass the parcel, and lookabout was close to hide and seek. After, we looked at some adverts from that era. One advert was for cleaning carpets and another was for the National Skating Palace. There was even a poster for children's reins and the all new gas fires! It was exciting and fun to play the games and have a look at what life was like back then!
