Peer editing in Year 6
We have enjoyed our first English unit of the year – Rose Blanche. We have written diary entries and bravery award speeches; drawing on our World War Two knowledge. We have also worked hard this half term to peer edit our work by working in a group of three using the writer hints and editing key as a guide.

Y6 have been looking at existing cloth bags. They have deconstructed them and considered their purpose and design. They then had a go at sewing a seam and evaluated their sewing skills before designing their own cloth bags.
