Year 6 Teaching and Learning Showcase
February 2022
In art, Y5/Y6 discussed the painting ‘Gassed’ by John Singer Sargent and used photography as the media to reenact the scene. The children became the directors and photographers, organising one another then creating their own title and description as artists ready for editing.
We had special guests in to teach us about road safety. Y6 discussed safe places to cross and the importance of road signs. They had an amazing time learning and remembering ‘Stop, Look, Listen and Think’.
Y5 and Y6 have been using their previous knowledge to extend their learning by understanding moves and vocabulary to practise their own independent Bollywood dances. By using the music ‘Jai Ho’ from Slumdog Millionaire they performed their final routine.
Our super-cool ‘Design A Football Boot’ competition entries have been sent to Panini. You can tell by the children’s faces how much they enjoyed this opportunity and even more so receiving their books and stickers. #GotGotNeed
January 2022
In music this week, Y6 have been experimenting with combining melodies using the Apple Garage Band app.
Through art we considered Rorschach who produced a personality test, which was considered and inspired other artists including Andy Warhol. We used his form of art and created our symmetry whilst considering what we could see within the images that we made.

For our pantomime, we attended Victoria Hall, Bolton and watched their rendition of Beauty & The Beast, which inspired a narrative piece of writing.

Our Y6 transferred their writing skills to computers and applied their learning in digital literacy to create their own newspapers. #BownessPrimary #LittleLever #Bolton #news
