Year 6<br />

Year 6 have had a fantastic first week back after half term. They have come<br />

back in with brilliant focus and motivation. During Computing, each group<br />

designed a World War One themed course for their Beebots to travel safely<br />

from one location to another. There were some brilliant designs and carefully<br />

planned by testing the movement of the Beebots. Some of the groups even<br />

added in an obstacle for the Beebot to avoid and once having a go, had to edit<br />

their programming to correct any mistakes. They also had some excitement in<br />

Science this week, sitting in front of a ‘Dragon’s Den’ style panel including Mr<br />

Richards, Mr Anderson, Mrs Wheeler and Mrs Lyne. The ‘Dragons’ outlined a<br />

challenge to design and create a Christmas decoration using circuits, bulbs and<br />

buzzers. In a few weeks time, the class will have to present their completed<br />

ideas to the very thorough panel. That afternoon, they began to test different<br />

circuits in order to light up bulbs and sound buzzers. Well done for having such<br />

a productive week Year 6!
