Rocket Diary! Week Ending: 4.11.16

Hello,

This week in Topic we have been researching events from the past. We have been finding out about the Gunpowder plot. "Guy Fawkes tried to blow up King James I using gunpowder" Teddy.


In Maths we have been learning about 2D shapes and 3D shapes. A 2D shape is a shape that is flat and cannot be picked up. " A cube has 8 vertices, 12 edges and 6 square faces" (Theo and Leyton) 

We became rockets and fireworks in dance. We used our bodies and movements to create firework shapes and patterns. We performed our movements to music.

Today we wrote a rocket diary in creative writing. We imagined how it would feel to become a firework and we wrote a diary entry about this. We also create our own acrostic poem.

Flaming fireworks
I saw some fireworks
Racing rockets
Everyone is watching
Whoooooosh went the firework
Orange flames are flying out of the back of a rocket
Red rockets racing like a shooting star
Keep your hands in your coat pockets to keep them warm
Sizzling when they start

Well done to Simeon who is our Star of the Week for always being a king and caring friend.

Congratulations to Sharon. Sharon will be taking Snowy our Learning Owl home this weekend.

We hope you have a good weekend. If you visit any firework displays remember to stay safe, stay with your grown up and be sensible.
