As a hook into our new science topic the children have designed their own offspring for the 'Mr Men and Little Miss' characters.
They chose 2 characters for parents and then designed what they thought their offspring would like thinking about the characterisitcs they could inherit from each parents.
I love the names that they have come up with! Fabulous work Year 6.
Have a look at the examples attached.

2020 is providing lots of opportunities for learning online. Below is an overview of some of the areas of Computing that children could be accessing as part of their home school learning.
E-SAFETY Home Learning
As part of our Computing curriculum and RSE/PSHE lessons e-safety lessons are taught.
We ask children how do they keep safe online?
Look at the attached document with our topic information for this half term. Our topic is 'Did we used to be apes?'
Also attached is the home learning grid for this half term. If your child is self-isolating or home learning they can choose from the grid of activities.
Please send pictures of learning via the Seesaw app or using the school email if you wish for the work to be shared on the class blog.
Other home learning activities include:
Reading - individual school books, tameside libraries- borrow box, books/comics or magazines from home

Everyone has had a fantastic time at Forest School this term. They have been lighting 'fairy blankets', using tools safely for whittling and sawing logs to make wood cookies. The children have also played new games, made natural paint brushes, identified leaves, balanced on the slackline and played in the mud. Each group has been cooking in the mud kitchen and they have made smores by toasting marshmallows on the campfire. What a busy few weeks. I am very proud of them all!
Please see the attached workbooks for the mathematical topics that we will be covering in Year 6 in Autumn 2. Please use these booklets to support home learning.
Don't forget to send in pictures/samples of work using the Seesaw app or send work to the school admin address.
