Week 6

We’ve had a good week this week, recapping on some elements of maths to prepare for secondary school and writing an edit and draft descriptive story using personification from the pespective of a mountain called The Dreadful Menace. In art, we designed a hat for a Year 6 prom. We also had a special guest in from RGS who showed us how to use Sphero for computing. We finished the week watching Peter Pan in preparation for our Year 6 play, and a well deserved rest after a hard half term. We hope you have a restful week.

Week 5

And that's the SAT's all done! A huge WELL DONE to all our Year 6 children, you have all shown such determination and resilience throughout the whole week. We couldn't be prouder of each and every one of you. Thursday has been a really chilled out afternoon with playing games like Dingbats, Guess the Picture, Logic Puzzles, Listen and Draw activities as well as much deserved and needed time outside. Enjoy your weekend, we hope you have something nice planned, even if it's just relaxing at home.

Week 4

This week in maths, we have been revising coordinates and translation and in English, revising SPAG topics. In the afternoons we've contined our art topic, perfecting our skills and enhancing our design. In P.E we've been doing some dance and karate.

Week 3

In maths, we’ve been learning how to calculate angles in a triangle and how to use a projector. In English, we wrote some great spelling stories about a girl and a gorilla, but there was a catch - it  had to be less than 50 words and have our tricky spellings in. In art, we continued our repeating patterns with some impressive results.

Week 2

We’ve had another busy week here at West Denton. The children are really improving their English and maths skills, we can see the difference and growing confidence so well done Year 6. The highlight of this week was an art/maths lesson where the children made repeating patters using geometric shapes.  

Week 1

Welcome back. We hope you’ve all had a lovely Easter break.

This week we had our last drumming lesson. The children have progressed so well from when they first started and were all confidently drumming in tune and time. We've started our Light topic in science looking at how we see light and what causes reflection. It's been a great first week back.
