British Science Week – Stretchy Slime Experiment
Art – Monet
Year 6 have been focusing on Monet and Impressionism. Impressionism is an art movement which focused on capturing the impression of the moment, especially in terms of light and effect. Over the past few weeks, Year 6 have carefully analysed a variety of Monet’s paintings and the techniques which he used. We carefully mixed our colours using a paint pallet while adding dabs of paint to build up the colour.
Music
In music we are focusing on the music of Carloe King. We have been working hard to learn the song and music to You’ve Got A Friend, to develop our whole class performance.
Science – Adaptation investigation
In Science we are learning about Darwin and his investigations into how finches adapted to survive on the Galapagos Islands. We focused on how different beaks impacted the consumption of food. We conducted a fair test to see how the small, pointed tip beaks compared with the wide tip beaked finches when eating smaller seeds on Island A compared to larger seeds on Island B. Year 6 will share their finding with you.
