Key Stage 2 - Sycamore and Elm (Year 6) 2018 - 2019

Welcome to Sycamore and Elm

This half-term, we are basing our writing around 'King Kong' by Anthony Browne.

During this half term the children will be recapping existing skills from year 5 such as relative clauses, subordinate clauses, fronted adverbials and expanded noun phrases and gaining new skills relevant to the year 6 curriculum. These skills include shifting formaily, creating cohesion across extensive peices of writing and usinf a variety of new and existing punctuation. Throughout the half term the children will showcase the above across different genres of texts, from letters to diaries and narratives.

Topic

In year 6 the children will be exploring the historical 'Titanic'. The children will learn about what the 'Titanic' was and why this vessel is known worldwide for it's impact on recent history.
