Year 6 Blog

On National Numeracy Day we looked at Maths throughout the school and chose a Super Mathematician of the Day from each class. Tiny, our White Rose Maths mascot, helped to present the certificates!  Well done to everyone!  Tiny will be visiting each classroom for the last Half Term!  Mrs Blomeley

Our new topic is 'Why were the Mayans magnificent?'

I hope that you are enjoying your creative homework task creating a recipe using chocolate!! I can't wait to see what you have made. In Mayan times, cacao beans were used as currency and considered to be worth more than gold dust. The Mayans are also remembered for their advanced writing and number system; their temples- most famously the Chichen Itza temple; and their love of the ball game pok-ta-pok pictured above. 

Have a look at some of the exciting things we will explore in our topic attached. 

A huge well done to our handwriting winners this half term. I am so impressed with the standard of writing which is now proudly on display outside Mrs Parker's room. 

Please have a look at some of their incredible work. I hope you enjoy using using your new handwriting pencil.
