We used Google Earth in our numeracy lesson today. It was just so much fun! Maths in Vegas is basically a set of placemarks detailing some maths activities in and around the city. We also looked at Maths in Madrid!
So we have been looking at the area of compound shapes and generally exploring 2D and […]
We spotted a great little science activity on the 5/6P Allstars blog (from Sydney Australia) yesterday and asked for some clear instructions to help us try them out. They have written a great post with clear instructions and photographs to follow. We had some time to have a go and didn’t do too bad - […]
I soon lost the recollections of fear I had in the village as we wound our way into the mountains. As I travelled among the snow white road, the horrible smell of branches and old oak rotting sends a shiver down my spine. The cart began to slow down as the wheels began to get […]

This is Dracula
Blooded clothes and cloak
With his evil laugh
Every one is awoke
Lucy Westenra died
who had a bite
Van Helsing tried to save her
But killed by light

The last couple of weeks we’ve done lots of interesting facts in literacy, maths, history and science. I like Mr Barrett and it’s very cool.
We all had a great time in P.E. We all got into 4s we had 2 girls and 2 girls in each group so then that way there wouldn’t be all boys or all girls.We then got into 2s with 1 of our team members and we played tennis. It was great fun!!!

In maths we all did compound shapes and I thought it was great fun.
In literacy today Mr O’Brien read the rest of Dracula and it is really interesting.
In year 6 I’ve found out about loads of cool things and I have also figured that my teacher Mr Barrett is the best teacher I have ever had he has been realy kind and not at all bad tempered infact non of the teachers I’ve ever had have been strict or nasty in any […]

I really enjoyed my first day because I got to see all my friends again, I got to see my brilliant teacher for the first time in year 6. I really enjoyed all of my lessons - my favourite lesson was literacy because I enjoyed writing biographies.
My first week in year 6 was Mega!! My first day in year 6 I wrote names on my literacy and maths books, science, R.E and so on. We are now writing a biography and autobiography. In maths we have been working with fractions and also multiplication. I like year 6 because of the kind […]
Name in the jar is where there is a jar and it is empty. At the side there is another box with pieces of paper inside it. In the lesson if you are good the teacher might say to you, well done 5 names in the jar. At the end of the day you will […]
In our science we have been learning about some new important vocabulary. We have looked at what SOLUBLE and INSOLUBLE materials are. After adding some different solids to water (and stirred) we noticed that some of them DISSOLVED and some did not.
Here is a question for you though…
Can you clearly explain what DISSOLVING means and […]
I don’t know about anyone else but I settled in really easily. I have a fab teacher and some brill friends that always look out for me. I have to say that the best subjects are literacy and art. I think it is great to have our own blog it shows how we all like […]
