Year 6 - Snow Leopards and Jaguars

We have had a busy few weeks in Snow Leopard class. We have all really enjoyed developing our understanding of light in science. Everyone in class made a periscope - we just need to test them properly by taking them outside! Although this is a very busy time of year in year 6, we have still ensured that every maths lesson contains a 'get up and go' activity. We have enjoyed improving our counting skills by using the 'plinky-plonk' tins, and very much enjoyed doing this outside. We have also enjoyed securing our understanding of percentages and have developed our reasoning skills by our 'round the room' activity. The help desks went down a storm too!

We saw a variety of interesting WW2 related artifacts. A good time was had by all.

In Snow leopards class this week the children have worked hard to complete homework, showing some of their learning bout WWII. Here is a selection of their fantastic work.

Our maths cafe was very successful this morning. Children enjoyed sharing maths investigations with their adults and each other. We hope everyone enjoyed the collaborative, problem solving activities they took part in.

Some of the Snow Leopards have been taking part in dance lessons with Mrs Amis on Wednesday mornings. They have been learning the Maori Haka! Check out Elijah's battle face!

We worked together collaboratively to make 2D and 3D shapes using rope!
