Stay and Learn

                                                                   Year 6 Stay and Learn 


Year 6 loved having their parents/carers visit them in class !

We looked at the end of year expectations for reading and writing, did a mini Guided Reading lesson (with SATs style questions)  and then had a look through our literacy books with our adults. 

Please click here to see the presentation. 






"My dad completed two of the Guided Reading questions and I corrected him!" - Rosie, Birch 

‘I liked working with my mum to answer the questions’ - Nehemiah, Redwood 

We would really appreciate it if you could complete the feedback form here








Poetry in Year 6

                                                                 

This past week, the children have been exploring different British poets in celebration of National Poetry Week. Each poem explored different social aspects impacting modern Britain. On Thursday, the children had the opportunity to look at the poem, The British by Benjamin Zephaniah. To begin, we watched a performance of the poem, which helped with our understanding of the pivotal message the poet wanted to convey. Following this, the children worked in pairs to rehearse their own reading of the poem. In order to be successful, the children reflected on what tone, pace and actions might be needed for this poem. To concluded the lesson, the children had the opportunity to share their performance with the rest of their class. 



 
 

 

"I like how the poem sounded like a recipe." Najhat, Birch 


"The end of the poem could be read slowly to make the message clear and stand out from the rest of the poem." Maxi, Larch
