Compliments from an author

Below you will find our work that we did whilst thinking about Remembrance Day.  By the magic of the internet, the author who inspired our poem has seen our work and is most impressed.  See her email below - I am one proud teacher!  

Remembrance Day 2020 

We have discussed why people remember and how people remember.  We looked at images of The Glade at the National Arboretum using resources provided by the British Legion.  The Glade is and area of the grounds specifically designed to remember those who served; it is full of symbolism in the sculptures, paths and plants. 

We also studied a poem by Laura Mucha and after doing some Talk 4 Writing, we wrote our own versions of the poem.  Finally, we created some Remembrance art work. 

Science Day 

10th November 2020 

To link in with the book we are reading in class which is Pig Heart Boy by Malory Blackman, our Science topic this half term is learning about the human body.  Mrs Newsome dissected a pig heart which is similar to a human heart so that we could see the blood vessels and the different chambers of the heart.
