Ducklings have been looking at capital letters this week. We recognised that we all have them at the beginning of our names and how they look different from lower case letters. Next we used a varied range of capital letter resources to find ways we could create our names.
To conclude our learning of The Tempest, we wrote our own play scripts. Some of the children changed the ending of the play and actually killed Prospero and some children decided that Ariel needed revenge! The children worked amazingly in their groups and have shown some real acting talents! Well done Yr 6!

It was so lovely to welcome back Ian, the children remembered their last workshop with him and were so excited to get stuck in to another drama session. We were transported back to 79AD and were asked to get ourselves into families and create homes. Each family was given a role to support our town, … Continue reading
Year 4 had a brilliant school trip today, as we travelled into London to go to the Globe Theatre. The children had the opportunity to have a tour around the Globe Theatre and also experienced a workshop to act out the play Macbeth.
Our focus this week in Literacy is persuasive writing. Today the children had to create a persuasive advert for a very exciting ‘Ice Cream Dream Machine’. Year 6 could choose what features the machine would have. They were all very imaginative and included voice recognition, unlimited customised flavours and even flavoured edible cups! The children … Continue reading
