Year 6 Gallery

Following on from reading in our school library, one of the recommended reads - The Terrible Trenches - Year Six were given the opportunity to put their metacognitive skills into practise by planning and making a response to what we had learned about World War One and Two in keeping with Remembrance Day. Some children chose to respond through poetry, power point presentations and diary writing. Others decided to create artwork such as a model spitfire and the Big Bertha gun with an actual fully working firing mechanism. All of the children's work was collated into a book which was presented to Mrs Bickell along with the models the children had produced. All children agreed how important it is to know the bravery of those who supported their country - We Will Remember Them.

Following on from our trip to Cadbury's World, we evaluated the packaging and contents of current chocolate bars on the market. We then designed our own truffles based on a target audience and created a name for our new truffles. Watch out Cadburys! We may have some delicious designs to rival anything you can find in the shops!

As part of our topic on the Maya, Year 6 went to Cadbury's World to look at how chocolate has developed over the years. We attended a talk about the Maya where we learned more about what they wore and the fashion trend of flattening foreheads from birth. We got to hold a real cocoa pod and smell real cocoa beans.

We explored Mayan pattern and used our knowledge of Mayan artwork to design and decorate our own Mayan masks.

Mayan Hero Twin Experience. After listening to the story of the brave Hero Twins, we had the opportunity to experience the main events of the story for ourselves. We had to jump over the river of spears, river of blood and the river of puss. We were then given the option to sit on the burning bench and greet the Lords of Death before making our way through the House of Blades and the House of Jaguars. Finally, we had to choose whether to jump over the oven or jump in!
