Eagle Class
Year 6
Our Year 6 staff team: Mrs Goulding (class Teacher), Miss Edkins (Teaching Assistant) Mrs Green (Teaching Assistant) Mrs Razak (1:1 Teaching Assistant) and Mrs Bernall (1:1 Teaching Assistant). We also have Mrs Hird teaching RE and PE on Tuesday afternoons.
This Autumn term, we will be learning about World War 1 and World War 2 as part of our ‘Fallen Fields’ topic. We will learn about causes of the wars and create a timeline to develop pupils’ understanding of chronology. We will discover what it was like for different people during these times, for example, life on the Western Front during World War 1 and 2, as well as life for those at home. Aspects of World War 2 will include evacuation, rationing, roles of civilians, the Battle of Britain, the life and diary of Anne Frank, the Holocaust, D-Day landing and VE Day.
As always, our topic will be taught in a cross-curricular approach and we will explore our theme through many toehr subjects.
Our focus text in Literacy is ‘Resist’ by Tom Palmer. This text is a powerful story following the themes of crime and punishment that enables pupils to gain a coherent knowledge and understanding of the wider world in the past - I am sure that Eagle Class will connect really well with the book!
