SOLE with Sugata Mitra

Today we were so privileged. 20 children from across Year 6 were selected to take part in a SOLE (Self Organising Learning Environment). The children were given the question: 

Where do dreams come from? 

The children were given 30 mins by Professor Sugata Mitra. The children had to organise themselves, find and choose key information and prepare for a presentation. 

You should be so proud of yourselves Year 6. Fantastic thinking skills, deeper learning skills and communication. 

Thank you to Sugata Mitra.

Science 22.04.15

Today we had fun exploring irreversible and reversible changes. We added heat to a variety of food items and observed what changes occurred, then we had to decide if the change was reversible or irreversible. 

Our best PE lesson ever...

On Friday, we were very lucky to have a treat. We enjoyed a PE lesson taught to us by fitness instructor Rachel. 

We had great fun and Mrs Leigh was very proud of us for persevering and trying hard. It was hard work but so much fun!
