It is so lovely to be back and to see everyone again! It truly felt like old times for us, but it’s wonderful to have a change of classroom and a fresh perspective as we embark on our Year 6 journey together. Our new topic is "Who Do You Think You Are?" In this topic, we will be delving into our family history, discussing the meaning of identity, and honing our analytical skills. This week may have been short, but it has certainly been busy! We have commenced work on a short graphic novel titled "Can I Build Another Me?" This engaging book has sparked some fascinating conversations about identity and the uniqueness of everyone. In maths, we are exploring the place value of both large and small numbers within real-world contexts, which has been exciting for the students. Our humanities lessons have involved investigating our family trees to help us understand more about ourselves and our backgrounds. To finish our week, the children have been busy preparing their entries for the Usk Show, using pop art to create artwork based on the theme "Dreams Can Come True". Thank you for your ongoing support, and I am looking forward to a fabulous year ahead in Year 6!
