Remembrance learning

We learnt lots about the significance of Remembrance this week and why the poppy is such an important symbol of Remembrance.

The children were excellent in our Remembrance activities. They were so respectful and thoughtful during our Remembrance assembly and when we went outside to have our two minute silence. Well done Emeralds!

As part of our Remembrance writing, we wrote poems this week. Here is a selection of some of our work:

We also wrote poems focussing on the red and black colours shown in the poppy.

We also worked really hard on our field of poppy masterpieces. We used paint to create the meadow and sky, followed by the red poppy shapes. Emerald Class then added more detail to the meadow by adding other flowers to the meadow using oil pastels. Well done Emeralds! The children really impressed Mrs Huntbach and I with how carefully they used the paintbrushes and pastels to create their work. We loved how much the children thought about the effect they wanted to create. It’s wonderful to see just how unique every piece is! Great work Emeralds!
