Sharks (Year 6) 2017 - 2018

Welcome to Sharks class page!

Welcome back to a brand new year and an brand new theme - Shakespeare and the Tudors.

This term we will be looking at the great bard himself, William Shakespeare! We will be studying the plays; The Merchant of Vencie, Romeo and Juliette, The Tempest and Twelfth Night.

Alongside the plays we will also be looking at the period that he lived in and how this differs from now.

This term also see the inevitable SATs upon us. DO NOT PANIC! We are ready to show what we can do! During maths and English we will be making sure that the children are prepared and relaxed about the tests. What we would ask is that the children get a good nights sleep and a healthy breakfast each morning so they are ready and raring to go!

PE: this year PE will take place on Tuesday and Thursday. Please make sure that your child is ready for the lesson and has a PE kit in school at all times - this consists of a pale blue T-shirt navy blue shorts and trainers or plimsolls. The children also may benefit, in the winter terms, from a pair of track suit bottoms and a hoody. This term we will be doing archery tag and cricket.

Mile of the day: Term  will see the start of the Mile a Day. Children will be encouraged to run, jog or walk for 15min on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday and hopefully travel a whole mile! We look forward to them getting fitter and fitter over the year ahead.
