  • "Serve one another humbly in love" Galatians 5:13b

Da Vinci - Year 6

Welcome to Da Vinci - Year 6!

Miss Armstrong, the class teacher, and Mrs Kilby are the members of the Da Vinci Team.

 

Hello and welcome to the Da Vinci page! This is where you will find all the information you need to know about what we will be doing in Year 6 this half term.

 

In Da Vinci class we believe that together we can create a fantastic, positive and stimulating learning environment, where everyone can thrive and truly enjoy learning.

Thinking about yourself isn’t always easy, but it can be fun.

 

 

Wow, how that half term flew!

Da Vinci Class, you have definitely shown that you are ready to work hard and your enthusiasm for all the learning we are doing is just outstanding

This half term our concept is FREEDOM. Through the Amnesty International book, Dreams of Freedom, we will be finding creative ways to explore the concept through Geography, DT, Art and English. 

Using ideas from this book, our P4C sessions will aim to empower us to explore the idea of freedom, build empathy and develop our knowledge and understanding of human rights.

In RE, we will focus on Salvation as we prepare for Easter.  We will be investigating why some people find belief in the resurrection makes sense and inspires them. This will be explored through a variety of artwork from around the world linked to the last weeks of Jesus’ life.

Our new Art topic features a continuation of drawing and sketching skills through the study of artist Georgia O’Keeffe. We will be sketching live flowers from different perspectives, experimenting with the forms and shapes of different flowers. We will then use florist wire to create sculptures which will be covered using tissue paper.  This will lead on to looking at the wire sculpture of Cathy Miles as we refine our learned skills to create a smaller sculpture in the form of a bird.

We continue to enjoy our African percussion lessons with Mrs Vaughn from the Hampshire Music Service, and hope to show off our skills very soon!
