Shark

Welcome to the Shark Class Page

Years 5 and 6 Teacher - Miss Ayers

For space week, the adults of Shark Class were invited in to learn alongside their child. We made a pocket solar system along with a constellation projector.

It was so lovely to have the adults in class with us to help learn all about the solar system.

Thank you to all who came along!

The adults of Shark class came in for a book look. The children love to show their adults all that they have been learning and the new skills they have.

It was great to see the library so full of people talking about learning.

In Art we have been exploring different detailed parts of the face. We focused on different features like the ear, mouth, eyes and nose. Once we had explored how to create them, we then put them together using graded pencils to create detailed self-portraits.

Year 6 pupils attended the Crucial Crew afternoon, where they took part in several interactive and eye-opening sessions delivered by professionals.

The topics covered were invaluable, including:

Fire safety

Road and cycling safety

Alcohol and drug awareness

Anti-social behaviour awareness

Staying safe online and using mobile devices

Year 6 gained so much knowledge to help them stay safe and make informed choices as they become more independent. A big thank you to all the experts who made this experience so engaging and educational!

2023 - 2024

We have had a busy year in Shark class and have learnt some fantastic skills.

Art

In Art we have been refining our skills in painting. We looked closely at how to create depth and tone. In our Chinese art unit, we focused on the more fine detail of brush strokes.

World Book Day

For World Book Day this year, we celebrated all things books. We came dressed in our pyjamas and listened to bedtime stories.

It was great to see everyone so excited about books and creating their own story maps.

Dental Nurse Visit

Shark class had a visit from the dental nurse and learnt all about the way to keep our mouths healthy. We were shocked at the amount of time you should be brushing your teeth.

We even got to meet a friendly dinosaur to demonstrate how to brush our teeth.

Book Look

The adults of Shark class came in for a book look. This is a fantastic opportunity to look at what we have been learning and what we are most proud of.

It was great to see so many adults to share and discuss the learning which is happening in Shark Class.

Science Learning Cafe

In our Science Learning Cafe, we looked at how we see. We made our own zoetrope and looked at how a series of pictures when spun can look like they are moving.
