Central Idea
Many elements combine to create a theatrical performance
Lines of Inquiry
- The roles and responsibilities involved in a theatrical performance (function)
- The time period/context of the play (Causation)
- Ways of connecting elements of a performance (connection)
Next week, we will focus on both Acts 1 and 2, starting to put all the components together. We will develop dances for the songs, movement around the stage and hopefully some practise using head microphones and props. Learning contracts will be ongoing in the classroom and children will be liaising with another to manage props, costumes and advertising for the show.
Number Maths
Pattern & Function
An inquiry into…
Algebraic expressions to record the rules for patterns
The use of brackets and order of operations to write number sentences
Continuing and creating sequences involving whole numbers, fractions and decimals
As part of their learning contracts, Year 6 will cover a range of Language inquiries. Some may choose to write their own fairy tale story, you might compare different characters from similar stories or you might look into the language features of advertising our production! We look forward to seeing what you create.
