YEAR 6 ARMS (RED)
Mrs Humberston & Ms WoodWelcome to 6H (ARMS Provision) Class Blog!
In 6H our class teacher is Mrs Humberston & our fantastic teaching assistant is Ms Wood.
The children in this class work very hard but also have a lot of fun.
They have the superb reputation of being one of the most polite and well behaved classes in the school.
The children come from all over Gateshead and some are lucky enough to get a taxi to school.
We all are very kind and respectful towards each other and have lots of fun learning together.
We would like to use this blog to share our homework, our ideas, our fascinating finds, upcoming events and photographs, and we`d really like to know what everyone thinks of them.
Keep Blogging!
Mrs Humberston, Ms Wood & 6H

Repeated pattern designs
In computing we have been using Turtle Academy to program repeated patterns. We have been using count controlled loops. We have called on procedures to simplify our programs and have debugged our designs to make them look better.
If anyone needs anything mending, I know a class.
Even with such a short half term the year 3 and 7B have applied their sewing knowledge and have designed and made their own Anglo-Saxon wallets and purses. [gallery...
Oobleck- solid or liquid?
The children were characterising solids and liquids today but there were definitely ones that stumped them. They just didn’t fit the regular patterns.
