*Year 6 – Home Learning – Week 10!*

By Mrs J Hartwell17th June 2020

WEEK 10!

It’s hard to believe we are now in our 10th week of home learning! The work coming in is still as beautiful and carefully thought through as it was in the beginning. Keep it up, Year 6! 🙂

 

Hannah has been busy working her way through finding the area of different shapes. She is also trying out her new sewing machine for her RE work about charities – watch this space!

Find out more about her chosen charity here and also find out what she thought of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix here.

Niamh has also been caclulating her way through the area of shapes and practising her handwriting showing off her cursive style and some bubble writing:

She has been working her way through the activities in our transition booklet:

…. and making her very own animal book marks:

She has also completed her charity poster here and film review of Daddy Day Care here!

 

Rebecca has been practising her origami skills and has made herself a new pet mouse to keep the page in her book:

She loved it so much, she made her very own animal collection (I’m sure you’ll agree they look fab!):

Ethan has enjoyed finding the area of parallelograms and compound shapes. He aslo created his very own bookmarks too:

William has chosen Children’s Cancer and Leukaemia Group as his charity and has already been supporting a Special Named Fund at CCLG called Pass the Smile. He and his brother took to the streets to sell home-made lemonade to raise money in his name. They raised £100! Well done William and Alex!

He has also been working his way through this week’s tasks:

Molly enjoyed a socially distanced meet up with Erin O this week and enjoyed a yummy bbq! She made sure she had all of her work done first though – I’m sure that was the perfect motivation needed:

Here is a selection of Dhilan’s work from the week:

 

 

Be the best versions of you!

By Mrs J Hartwell12th June 2020

It was so lovely to see most of your faces this morning and chat about some of the things you are excited and/or nervous about in regards to secondary school. Sorry it was cut short and we didn’t get to say a proper goodbye (40minutes is not long enough to catch up when we’re used to seeing eachother for 30ish hours per week!).

Please remember to send me a picture of your hands and prepare some questions for next week all about transition. I want to make you feel as ready as possible for your next adventure. Please also take the time to send me an email to tell me how you’ve been and what you’ve been up to – it’s lovely to keep in touch.

Please remember to vote for your Pupil of the Year – the votes will be counted soon 🙂

Finally, I leave you with one of my favourite quotes:

Always be the best version of yourself..I am trying everyday to ...

 

*Year 6 – Home Learning – Week 9*

By Mrs J Hartwell10th June 2020

Year 6 are keeping themselves busy during this drizzly week by working their way through this week’s home learning tasks. Here’s what they’ve been up to:

Ethan has been as busy as ever with his Maths, Reading, Handwriting, Origami and RE – I particularly loved his artwork to celebrate the feast of Corpus Christi:

Rebecca loved the origami so much she did a variety of styles and sizes and even made some notes to go inside them:

She has also really impressed me with her book review of our last class read, ‘Can you see me?’:

Hannah found the origami envelop a challenge but got there in the end:

Here is her fantastic book review of Can you see me?:

After asking for some recommendations of good reads, Isla has been busy on Amazon by the looks of things! Happy reading Isla!

Erin E has been capturing some of God’s natural creations as she has been taking some gorgeous shots of some of her favourite flowers – a future photographer in the making I think!

 

 

Year 6 *Pupil of the Year* Award

By Mrs J Hartwell5th June 2020

It has become tradition at All Souls’, that at the end of the year, we celebrate the many talents and achievements the pupils of our school share by presenting awards for class superstars and attainment and progress awards for each subject. This is something we would love to continue this year as it would be very sad to have a year missing on the trophies and it’s just one way that we can have a little bit of normality at this time.

Some of these awards are especially for Year 6 and one of these awards is voted for by you!

This is our ‘Pupil of the Year’ award. Please take the time to think about which child in our class you would like to vote for and why before completing the survey below:

*Year 6 – Home Learning – Week 8*

By Mrs J Hartwell5th June 2020

More stunning work has been coming through from Year 6 this week and we even ended it with a Zoom talent show where everyone had the opportunity to share their lockdown talent with us! We had a wonderful display of activities including art, piano playing, drawing, sport, Spanish, French, gymnastics, Irish dancing, timestables practice and photography! What a wonderful end to the week 🙂

Ethan has been busy reflecting shapes and practising his beautiful handwriting:

He also celebrated Pentecost this week by making a birthday card to the Church and creating a teaching poster all about this special feast:

He finished the ending the ‘Francis’ which you can read here

… and researched more information on three of his chosen wars:

 

Rebecca has been working hard on her creative writing with this fabulously spine-chilling continuation of ‘Francis’:

*Year 6 – Home Learning – Week 6*

By Mrs J Hartwell13th May 2020

It’s a strange one for us this week as we should have been showing off all of our hard work by completing our SATs. So our home learning has taken a light twist on the usual SATs to celebrate what would have been and there is also less of it so that children can still enjoy a chill day Friday as they would have had if we were in school.

Here’s what they’re up to this week:

 

Molly has been busy trying out some of our Science experiments at home:

Niamh clearly wasn’t happy with my score in the SPaG test (I personally think it was a little harsh!). She also got an interesting score of 70.61628 on her Reading test!

Rebecca has been a Scientist testing which sauce cleans coins the best:

Hannah has also had a go at the same experiment although chose some different sauces:

Here is some more of her work (check out that shocking spelling score!):

 

Liam LJ has been writing about the fruits of the Holy Spirit he believes are ripe within those around him:

He also wrote and read aloud this beautiful Corona Virus poem:

Here are Hannah and Rebecca’s war projects:

Frank has been busy trying out a Science experiment, creating his own image of Heaven and baking (looks delicious!):

I loved reading Isla’s autobiography:

Here is a selection of Ethan’s work:

And some more updates from William:
