Other areas of learning we will be exploring are coding and creating our own games and 'Where we live!' in French! We will also be preparing the children to perform in Young Voices in the new year through out music curriculum!

Year 6 Spring Term Curriculum - Mother Nature and Her Earth

Ever been stranded on a desert island? Ever wondered why it's so hot in some countries but not in others? Well Year 6 are going to spend this term exploring Mother Nature and Her Earth alongside reading Michael Morpurgo's captivating novel 'Kensuke's Kingdom'. Throughout the term we will explore a range of geography from Longitude and Latitude to coastal erosion giving our children to see the world like they never have done before. In Art, we will take inspiration from our focus text and created some amazing sketches whilst in Science we will delve deeper into the world of Light. There really is so much to be learning so everyday will be jam packed! Not to forget that VERY exciting trip to Young Voices coming up to show off our singing skills and also a special trip to the great outdoors to learn more about bushcraft and survival skills - Just like Michael in our book! 

It's going to be so much fun Year 6!

In our final term of Sherwood Junior School, Year 6 have a very exciting term ahead of them. Alongside rehearsing for a fantastic end of year play, they will be exploring 'The Wonders Of Life', seeking to know more about animals and living things, their habitats, classification and the human body. We will have lots of fun learning more about the rainforests of the world, their fascinating wildlife but also the dangers that they are in due to climate change. This theme will thread into our DT and art where we will explore textiles and textures in the most colourful way possible. Finally in PE, we will be inviting parents in to join us in a fun game of rounders where we can show what we have learnt and don't forget Sports Day in the final half term!
