    PE - Dance

    Posted by Mrs N Lawday
    We started our PE lesson today with the Beep test! The children did fantastically, especially as we haven't done this for a while! The children are hoping to build on this score in the coming weeks. Dance this term is inspired by street art and this week they showed their spray painted initials via dance.

    Today, year 6 found out about perspective drawing. We looked at the forefront and the background of some pictures and investigated how these items can be shown on the paper to look 3D. We looked at the lines on the drawing and how these can help to show perspective.

    PSHE - Being me in my world

    Posted by Mrs N Lawday
    As an introduction to PSHE this term, the children played bingo to find out who else in the classroom liked the same things as they did. Then they thought about their own goals for the year ahead, either in school or out of school. These will be displayed in class to keep reminding them of what they want to achieve.
