Terrific Trip to Tatton Park

Today, Topaz class have travelled back in time to 500 AD to experience life as an Anglo Saxon.

We have learnt how to weave , make flour and most terrifyingly how to fight as Shield Maidens and Warriors.

An absolutely brilliant day has been had by us all.

REMEMBRANCE CINQUAIN POETRY

After watching a short animation called Beyond the Lines, we thought carefully about the message in the film and discussed its meaning and importance.

I was very impressed by the children’s thoughtful responses and sensitivity.

Next, we brainstormed what soldiers might see, hear , smell and feel. We used these ideas to create CINQUAIN poems. Our favourites will be shared during the Remembrance Service on Thursday.

Features of a Newspaper 📰 Report

This week , Topaz class have been looking very carefully at a selection of newspaper reports and identifying the key features: headlines, 5 Ws, advertising, captions, direct and indirect quotes.
