Broad and Balanced...<br />

Y6<br />

Year 6 have been studying Hinduism and focused on aspects of their beliefs,<br />

such as: karma, dharma, moksha and their understanding that their souls experience<br />

a cycle of life, death and reincarnation as another being. We had lots<br />

of fun creating our very own board game, “Snakes and ladders - Hindu version”,<br />

which required the players to go through the <strong>10</strong>0-square grid, allowing<br />

for their dharma to be fulfilled, which ultimately allowed them to achieve moksha<br />

once the number <strong>10</strong>0 was surpassed. There were some fantastic designs<br />

and ideas for aspects of Hinduism that could replace the traditional snakes and<br />

ladders.<br />

In English, we have begun to write our eerie stories by creating a powerful,<br />

descriptive introduction. We have attempted to use figurative language such<br />

as pathetic fallacy and personification, as well as powerful vocabulary to really<br />

entice a reader into the story.<br />

In maths, we are finishing off our unit relating to decimals and fractions. The<br />

class have been doing an amazing job with this difficult concept.<br />

Super work year 6!
