We have begun looking at stories with historical settings. We watch some short clips from the story of 'The Prince and the Pauper'. We discussed the different aspects of the extracts that showed us that it was set in the past; we looked at things such as the clothing of the actors, the way that they spoke, their envioronment and objects that may have been used in the past. Next week we will be looking more in depth at the aspects of an historical story. |
This week in Topic the children have been working extremely hard to produce some excellent posters. Each of the posters focusses on a different part of history that has to do with flight such as parachutes, the glider and the hydrogen balloon. Early next week the children will present their posters or PowerPoint presentations to each other.
4C chose a name at random, resulting in Celine Naude being chosen to recieve the Achievement Award. The class decided that she deserved it for many reasons, the main reason being that she works collaboratively at all times within her triad group. They were very happy that she remembered to bring in socks for their sock puppets! |
