This Tuesday, was World Mental Health Day. The children really enjoyed learning about how we can look after our mental health with a healthy diet and exercise. We also did some mindful colouring, had some brain breaks and even watched ASMR sand-cutting videos to help us relax. In Science, we had a gory lesson and learnt all about blood. We investigated the roles of blood cells, platelets and plasma…we even got to make our own blood using jelly, orange juice, cheerios and marshmallows!
This week, Y6 built a plasticine heart model in Science to see all the different features of the heart. They did some amazing work and took great care in their learning. In English, we have been putting ourselves in the life of an evacuee in WW2, in order to write a diary entry next week! Y6 have been super mathematicians, working on our long multiplication, factors and multiples. We have also started celebrating Black History Month and have looked at some influential people like Bob Marley and Martin Luther King.
In Y6 this week, we finally got to put our poetry skills to use and wrote poems all about The Blitz. The children have produced amazing pieces of learning and showcased their creativity. In Science, we have been investigating the human body and the importance of our hearts!
What a busy week we have had. We have had the opportunity to explore lots of different career options during PSPS’s first ever Aspirations Week! The children got to meet Leeds UTD players, have a go at key hole surgery on a dummy and even Miss Bacchus’ mum came and made an appearance! This was a brilliant way to learn about all the possible career options for our children.
Another wonderful week of learning in Y6, we have begun our WW2 topic in History and the children have shown lots of enthusiasm about it. We role played what it would be like to be in an air raid, with a blaring siren, which meant we had to take shelter under tables for safety! In PE, we have started our sessions with the Leeds UTD coach, furthering our skills of team work.
What a way to start Y6, we all made a trip to Nell Bank on the first day back and worked on our team building and problem solving skills. The children represented our school amazingly well and are a credit to us! All of the Y6 children have made an incredible start to their final year at Park Spring.
