In History this week, Year 6 have been working hard on their Double Page Spreads, showing off everything they have learned about the Ancient Maya Civilisation! We look forward to seeing them when they are complete.
Year 6 revised vocabulary for ordering food. They then had a look at a playscript entitled the Bizarre waiter. They practised each role as a class and then with their partner. A few children chose to act out their playscript for the class. C
During their lesson this week, the children used their compass directions and locational language as well as their knowledge of the land to help them explain which way they would travel to different locations. Using an atlas to support their decisions they located: Peru, Montevideo, Lake Titicaca, Stanley and Manaus. They then watched a clip about how the Uros people live on Totora reeds and their lifestyle. Using Venn diagrams they collated the similarities and differences between how the Uros people and how we live. The children then looked at different artefacts, photos and clothing from Peru. They loved it.
Year 6 have written a paragraph about all the places in the school as if they were conducting a tour. They also learnt the names of different subjects and had a go at creating a time table using their knowledge of the days of the week and time.
