Computer Programmers invade our classroom!

Miss Sancto's clever Year 6 programming students have been writing code to create their own computer games.
Today we were fortunate enough to test out their creations!  
Wow amazing!

I can beat the high score!

Don't let the elephant catch the bat!

Click on the snowman and watch him change his outfit!

Do you think I am enjoying this?  YES I AM!





Clearly a popular game!


My turn!



Can you show me what to do please?






Top score!















There is money behind your ears!

Young Miss S shared her very special experience with us during Oral News.  
She advised us all that if you practise and try hard you will find money behind your ears.  
As you can imagine, we were all very interested in this fact and after trying VERY hard and CHECKING very often, we found an expert to help us find that ever elusive COIN!


I think there might be something there.........

Success.........I am going to put my treasure somewhere safe!

Can you find any coins?  No?  

Let me check........

Found one!

Anything behind this ear?

I am going to keep checking :-)

What's the MATTER?

Our Science topic this term is MATTER and we are investigating all sorts of questions........

Is it a solid, a liquid or a gas?  Can solids change shape?  Can we make a gas using a solid and a liquid?

Let us show you what we have discovered!

Can we blow up a balloon using a solid and a liquid?  YES WE CAN!
