Lisa Carrington

In week 4 YMS got a special visit from Lisa Carrington. We were all so excited about her visit. I was so jumpy and giggly before she came. When I went up to ask her a question, that's when it actually hit me Lisa Carrington is less than 2 metres away from me. I couldn't believe it! So here is a video and a piccollage.

Digi Award

Digi Awards

From the start of term three YMS School have been making our DIGI AWARDS!  I really enjoyed making the digi award because you got to hang out with your friends and do work at the same time.

I found that finding the right website to make our website was actually quite hard, so we did it on a blog instead.

But in the end my friend Bella and I used blogger and we found that it worked really well for us.

The theme was: Be the Change

So here is the link to our blog
The blog

Speech on Womans Rights in Saudi Arabia

In week 5 YMS started writing speeches. This type of writing is called persuasive writing, which means we have to try and convince our audience to come round to our way of thinking. Everyone got to choose what their topic was for their speech. I chose ‘Women's Rights in Saudi Arabia’, because I think it is a really interesting topic. I really enjoyed learning a lot of new facts about my topic. Firstly we looked at a few inspiring speeches. Then we went on bitesize for tips, next we looked at the rubric that we had to mark ourselves against. Then I started writing and here is the final product! Enjoy!

Cycle Safety

Cycle Safety

For the past three days the Year 6's have been doing Cycle Safety. I enjoyed learning how to do right hand signals because before I did Cycle Safety I didn't know how to make right hand turns. I found turning around on the bike while it was still moving quite hard because it was hard to keep the bike straight while you were looking back.
