YEAR 6 Ending on a High!
W
hat a year! After weeks of home learning, they were back for their final term at KPS and raring to go. Having endured the never to be repeated experience of their teachers serenading them with Take That’s I Want You Back for Good, the Year 6 pupils launched into the Summer Term like champions.
WORLD WAR II TOPIC Our Summer Term topic on World War II involved exploring the past through a wide range of cross-curricular learning methods. As well as discovering facts and looking at evidence about evacuees, the Blitz and D Day landings, the children engaged their imagination through creating poetry, making models of Anderson shelters, reading the classic children’s novel The Silver Sword, and reviewing films and documentaries about the war. They also studied the messages and artwork of propaganda posters and had a go at designing some of their own.
The Year 6 pupils have certainly been a creative bunch.
