6ES - Manaus
Welcome to our class page!
To see what we have been learning about recently, scroll down to the bottom of the page.
This is what we are learning about this half term (Spring 1):
Manaus class have continued with their fantastic attitude towards their learning this half term. I have been really impressed with their efforts particularly with their presentation - scroll down to see some examples!
Our class name comes from the book "Journey to the River Sea" that we have read in class. It is based in Brazil and the Amazon rainforest.
Our weekly timetable has changed slightly since the first half term.
This is an updated version:
Our PE day is Tuesday. Please ensure the children bring their kit in and that they can remove their own earrings - we are not allowed to tape them!
Our morning maths sessions run every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 8am. These sessions are really helpful if the children would like any extra support in any areas or if they would like an extra challenge. Free breakfast and a drink is also provided. We have had fantastic attendance so far and we've had some great feedback from the children.
Our trip to Conkers. We had a fantastic time building dens. making fire, orienteering and having a go at the low ropes course!

We enjoyed our active science lesson. In teams, we had to race to label all of the organs in the body as well as a diagram of the circulatory system.
As part of our science topic - classification - we classified different types of leaves that we collected from the nature area. We also enjoyed making leaf rubbings and discussing their features!
