International time zones
We have been exploring international time zones around the world.
Pliny the Younger
Sporting some impressive beards, some of year 5 played the part of Pliny the Younger, reading his eye witness account of Mount Vesuvius destroying Pompeii.
Shakespeare workshop
We have had a great afternoon with Catherine from The Wordsworth Trust, thinking about the whole project of making the film and reflecting on the experience.
Sealife competition
We have entered a competition to visit the Sealife Centre. We investigated the problem of plastic in the oceans and made information posters about it, we collected plastic from the beach and our own homes to make some jelly fish and a turtle.
Writing biographies
We have moved to the hall whilst there is voting taking place in our classroom. We are writing our Alfred the Great and King Canute biographies.
Viking vocabulary
Today we have been researching Alfred the Great and King Canute ready for our biography topic next week. We also found out about the Vikings. We looked at some new vocabulary then did some map work about their journey. It’s been a busy old, historical day.
Anglo Saxon and Viking artefacts
We have had a brilliant morning looking at Anglo Saxon and Viking artefacts and thinking about who used them and why.
