Flat Life

Y6 have been working on a transition unit about FlatLife. It is about different people living and getting on with each other. We made our own flats using shoe boxes - we made furniture - chairs, tables, beds. We also made characters for our flats - using clay.




We worked on our design and technology skills - realised the importance of measuring accurately because some of us ended up with lopsided tables!




We also had to saw the wood - Assven was very good at this.

These are some of our flats:

Subha's Flat contains all the musical instruments she plays.

Kristy's Flat was a bedroom.




Leah's was an ordinary bedroom.


Genesis's was a dining room, she made a table with plates with food on them.

Lauren and Cherish 's. They worked together.

James Chapman had a long mirror.

Veronika

Aberen sewed some curtains.


This is Thomas's

Jordan made an arm chair.


This is Merin's.

Daniel's.

Uzaifar's.
This is Ayse's.
Laura's Flat.

In Y6 we have been making maths board games for a younger audience.

Important up-date re: Wat Tyler Residential

As you know the Y6 residential this year, to Wat Tyler Country Park, was offered to both classes as 2 seperate visits. We hoped that as many children as possible would come and that we would be able to fill all the places offered. However, we sadly find now, that only half the anticipated uptake for places has happened.

Having received the figures and potential unacceptable increase in cost to each child, we have no choice but to combine both class trips into one. The date for the now one residential visit to Wat Tyler Country Park is Monday 20th June 2011 - Wednesday 22nd June 2011.

Every experience and planned activity will remain exactly the same as well as hopefully, the enjoyment and fun factor.

Visit to the Drama Department -Hainault High School

Recently, the Year 6 classes visited the drama department, in Hainault High School.
They were divided into two groups; one using the main hall and the other using the drama studio. Led by two teachers, they were introduced to the game 'Whoosh' which required them to step in and out of character, based around the story of Perseus and Medusa. They then rehearsed and performed parts of this story to an audience. The children learnt skills of voice projection, stage direction and corpsing. The children had a great learning experience.
