Year 6 13/01/2021

Morning Year 6,

We are nearly half-way through our second week. We can tell that you are having a super week so far, from all the fantastic work you have been completing at home. Make sure that you fully utilise all the resources that are available to you, on our Remote Learning pages. 

Time for reflection on our assembly theme of Democracy:

Imagine that only girls or only boys were allowed to answer questions, all day, every day . . . what would that feel like?

Can you imagine how the suffragettes felt, being expected to obey the law but having no say in who governed them and made those laws?

Many suffragettes suffered terribly because they wanted the same rights as men –some even died in the struggle to gain the vote for women. Think about their lives and struggle for a few moments.

Will you use your vote when you are older? Are there things you can vote for already, such as school council elections?

Today's Word of the Day is  flabbergasted - learn it using the Word Rap

Have another great day,

The Year 6 Team
