Animals in War poetry

Year 6 have written some fantastic, thought-provoking poems about the sacrifice of animals during the Great War.

Check out some of the poems below:











Column Addition using Explain Everything

Today we looked at column addition in maths, making sure we were careful to place our digits in the correct column, carrying 10 / 100 or 1000 and checking the final answer makes sense.

We were set the task of creating a short tutorial on Explain Everything to teach younger children how to use the method.

Have a look / listen - we did a great job!
