3rd and 4th July
Now the Summer Fair is over - another success on a day of lovely weather - we have settled to start a new section of work based on Michael Morpurgo's Kensuke's Kingdom novel. Our task this time has been to write an episode of the story from the point of view of Kensuke. (The novel itself is written from Michael's point of view.)
Most of us have now finished our "What a Wonderful World" music video, although there are still some groups that haven't quite finished, and we watched some of these at the end of the day. We did some work on our Egypt folder where we will put all the geography and history homework that we have on this topic. Yesterday we also did some more of our RE topic about Buddhism. This time we were thinking about Buddhist communities and about the lives of children growing up in a religious community.
Today we had our PE session with the YMCA and French. We listened to some more of Kensuke's Kingdom and spent some time trying to finish our recount from Kensuke's point of view. We also did some music, finishing our sound effects score for a silent film and performing it to the rest of the class.
