1=#N can design, write and debug programs that accomplish specific goals, including controlling or simulating physical systems; solve problems by decomposing them into smaller parts. #E was able to write computer programs that used algorithms to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit and work out the area and perimeter of rectangles from dimensions that were inputted by a user.
2=#N can use sequence, selection, and repetition in programs, and can work with variables and various forms of input and output.
3=#N can use logical reasoning to explain how some simple algorithms work and #e can detect and correct errors in algorithms and programs.
4=#N can understand computer networks, including the internet. #E can show how they can provide multiple services, such as the world wide web, and the opportunities they offer for communication and collaboration.
5=#N can use search technologies effectively, appreciate how results are selected and ranked, and #e can be discerning in evaluating digital content.
6=#N can select, use and combine a variety of software (including internet services) on a range of digital devices to design and create a range of programs, systems and content that accomplish given goals, including collecting, analysing, evaluating and presenting data and information. During our #Computing-topics project, #N was able to combine these skills to produce a great finished result.
7=#N can use technology safely, respectfully and responsibly, can recognise acceptable/unacceptable behaviour and can identify a range of ways to report concerns about content that #e may come across.

2=Over the year, #N worked on a unit comparing the morals, values and resilience of various faiths which #e had studied in previous years. #E was successful when learning many of the more complex facts involved with these faiths. #E was then able to use these facts to draw contrasts and find similarities and differences between the faiths, often doing well; especially during the class discussions that made up most of this topic.
3=#N skills when expressing #s thoughts and ideas were of benefit throughout the topic, and I feel that #e really helped out everyone in the class during this unit of work because #e was willing to get involved in every aspect of the work, be it discussions, written work or question and answer sessions.

5=Year Five is a year where pupils are able to compare all the faiths that they have learned about in previous years. #N worked on a unit comparing the morals, values and resilience of various faiths. During this time, #e started to understand some of the more important facts involved with these beliefs. #E also was able to work with the class to try and draw some contrasts and parallels between them.
6=During this time, #e was given the opportunity to make links between #h own beliefs and the beliefs of others during class discussions. #N's speaking and listening skills were given a chance to develop here too, although #e could have benefited even more from this unit of work if #e was more willing to get involved in the discussions we had in the lessons.

COMMENTS: 43 General Class Dojo
1=#N has shown a fantastic commitment to studying online during the Summer Term and #h ability to remain organised and focused on #h learning has been a credit. Studying online, due to our COVID-19 lockdown, has been a trying time for all concerned, but #N has used ClassDojo, and our online lessons, to continue #h education. I could not be prouder of #h commitment. By using these technologies, #N has proved that #e has taken everything that #e has learnt about Cybersafety seriously.
2=#N has shown a limited commitment to studying online during the Summer Term and #h partial absence has had a detrimental effect on #h grades and education during our COVID-19 lockdown. It will be some task to catch up when #N returns to school, and I hope that #e is aware of the hard work #e will have to put in throughout Year 6.

2=Home Reading - #N seems inconsistent with #h home reading habits, as #h journal is not completed and returned every day. Home reading is an extremely important part of #h education.

/*
/*    DID YOU KNOW?
/*
/*    You can also import comment files in the,
/*    Teachers Report Assistant format.
/*    There are 1000s around the web.
/*    School Report Writer automatically converts them.
/*
/*
/*    YOUR EXISTING COMMENTS ARE SAFE:
/*
/*    When you upload, you will be shown the comments
/*    you are about to import. You will be told if names
/*    are already in use and you can pick-&-click which
/*    comments to add to your comment bank.
/*
/*
/*    USE 'PLAIN TEXT' (.txt) FILES ONLY:
/*
/*    Import files must be 'plain text'. The easiest way to
/*    create one is to download a comment file from our site
/*    and open it on your computer. On most systems it will
/*    automatically open in a plain text editor. If you
/*    make changes and save, the file should automatically be
/*    saved as plain text. On PCs it will usually open in
/*    NotePad. On Macs, usually TextEdit. In Word, and other
/*    word processors, use 'save as' (see Word File menu)
/*    and then choose file type: 'text only/plain text'.
/*
/*
/*    ADDING HELPFUL NOTES:
/*
/*    Lines starting /* are for notes (like this line).
/*    They are ignored when files are imported.
/*    You can add notes anywhere in the file. Blank lines
/*    are also ignored and can also be included anywhere.
/*
/*
/*    COMMENTS AND LISTS:
/*
/*    Files contain groups of comments and lists.
/*    Each group should start with either:
/*
/*    COMMENTS: your-comment-name-here
/*    or
/*    LIST: your-list-name-here
/*
/*    List names are 2-30 characters long and contain
/*    only letters, numbers, '&', hyphens and NO SPACES.
/*
/*    Comment names can include spaces, and any other
/*    characters except: < > \ # (max length 50).
/*
/*    Each group may include up to 20 numbered lines, e.g.
/*
/*    COMMENTS: Science Yr7 project work
/*    1= #N's work on #Science-topics was excellent.
/*    2= #N gave an inspiring #Science-topics presentation.
/*    3= #N received a well-deserved A+ in #Science-topics.

/*
/*    REMINDER... lines beginning /* are for notes.
/*    So to import the two science examples above,
/*    you would need to remove the /*, otherwise
