Autumn Term 

Welcome back! I hope you have all had a lovely half term break and are ready for the next half term in Year 6. We have lots to look forward to, including a whole school trip to Chester Zoo!

This half term we will continue to focus on the theme of 'War and Conflict.' In our English lessons we will be using the text 'A Story Like the Wind' by Gill Lewis to support us in writing a flashback narrative and a newspaper report about refugees. In history we will carry on investigating the question, "Why was the Battle of Britain a significant turning point in WW2?"

Our Art and DT lessons will also link to this theme as we explore the work of Henry Moore and create Blitz drawings in his style. 

Spelling and Maths homework will be set on Friday and due in the following Wednesday. There will be one electronic piece of work and one paper piece of work set each week. Please ensure that homework is completed on time.   

Keep checking Twitter to keep up to date with what we are covering in class.

Here's to an exciting half term!

Warm wishes
