Year 6 – Fields - Year 6
Welcome to Year 6 – Fields Class
Hello and welcome to Fields class.
I am Miss Cornner and the Teaching Assistant is Mrs Cusano.
In Summer 1, our History topic is World War 2. We will be learning about what started the war, the home front, evacuation and the use of propaganda to influence the public on both sides. In Science, our topic is Animals including Humans focusing on the Circulatory System. This builds upon previous learning in Year 4 where they learnt about the digestive system. In Design & Technology, we are designing a playground featuring a variety of different structures, giving consideration to how the structures will be used. During this half term in Art, we will be learning about the artist Henry Moore and developing our 3-D drawing skills using various inks. In RE, we will be learning about how faith is expressed in Christianity. This term in music, we will be learning Songs of WW2, learning songs such as ‘Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag’ and ‘We’ll meet again’. In French, we are learning about French holidays, learning about the countries of the world, using different tenses and writing more complex sentences. In Computing, we will be learning about the history of computers and how they have evolved over time.
In Summer 2, our Geography topic is Eastern Europe. The children will learn about the different countries of Europe and then look in more detail at some of the contrasting areas of Eastern Europe, finding out about the landscape, climate and locations in each area. Science this half term is all about working scientifically. We will be conducting a range of experiments to consolidate our Science learning throughout the year. Computing and Design & Technology will link together and will involve designing a multifunctional and compact product to meet a client’s brief using CAD systems. In RE, we will be answering the question “What would Jesus do?” In Music, we will be learning the songs for a leavers’ production and performing to an audience. We are very excited about going on our 2-night residential trip this term to Hilltop in Norfolk!
Facts about Year 6 – Fields
Born in Jamaica, Dwayne Fields came to the UK at the age of six. His formative years in the UK were in inner city London. As a child in wild Jamaica, Dwayne loved nature and wildlife and wanted to reconnect to his early life in the forests and hilltops of Jamaica.
In 2010, Dwayne set himself his first of many challenges, becoming the first black Briton to walk over 400 miles to the magnetic North Pole. Since then his life has become richer, living a life of adventure and exploration, inspiring young people nationwide to explore the ‘great outdoors’ – wherever that may be.
