We began our new half term with a special afternoon activity to launch a new history topic. We explored the contents of a small "lost suitcase". This contained various items which we studied and investigated in order to develop a theory concerning the owner. The objects, and the research that we did on them allowed us to understand that the case had belonged to an individual (we were able to guess the age and gender) of someone who had lived at the time of the late 1930s. This made a super start to our work on life in Britain during World War 2.

In ICT we continued with our Powerpoint presentations about a mountain region and in maths we have had two sessions following up issues arising from the test that we did just before half-term.

Today, in English, we began some work on fiction writing by thinking about the openings of stories and this afternoon we had our weekly French, handwriting/spelling and YMCA PE sessions.
