04 Oct Year 6
In year 6 this week we have been honing our arithmetic skills. We have been learning how to use the expanded method of short division to help us when we move onto long division. In art we have continued to develop our drawing skills, copying scientific illustrations of birds – the finches that helped to give Charles Darwin evidence for his theory of evolution. During our Geography lessons, we then used world maps to plot Darwin’s journey on his ship ‘The Beagle’, where he collected many of his scientific specimens.
