Learning together, we grow kind hearts and healthy minds
Term 3
What a wonderful and informative day Sycamore Class experienced this term. They learned all about famous Pharaoh’s, Ancient Egyptian beliefs (gods and goddesses), took part in creating their own individual amulets as well as a whole host of other engaging and enjoyable Ancient Egyptian based activities. As you can see, a great time was had by all!
This week we have been learning what it means to be a global citizen. Sycamore Class have created their own Sustainability Source Book- which details many great ways we can look to ensure our homes, school and local community remain sustainable, yet continue to thrive and flourish in a positive and environmentally friendly way. Well done Sycamore Class!
Linking in with our global citizenship, we have been building up towards writing our balanced argument on ‘Deforestation’. Sycamore Class have been successfully using fronted adverbials, formal language and causal conjunctions/adverbials (as well as many other features) in this genres of writing. Great work Year 6!
As part of our topic (this term and next) on Ancient Egypt, Sycamore Class have been learning all about mummification. Answering key questions as to why did they do it? Was everyone mummified? and how exactly were bodies mummified in Ancient Egypt? The children presented their findings in a variety of ways (using 3d modelling/art and laptops).
