4th and 5th Class Blog

We were busy working on Halloween Art today. We focused on shades and tints of one colour and tried to create as many shades of that colour as we could. Then we added a haunted house, bats, spooky trees and headstones using black sugar paper to give our artwork a Halloween spin. Tomorrow we will use our art to inspire our persuasive writing when we create 'Haunted House For Sale' auctioneer brochures. 

Continuing our work on our Norman Castles this week. We are nearly finished our Motte, Bailey and Keep models. We will follow this construction work up with procedural writing on How to build a model Motte and Bailey.

Last week we used the sight of all the leaves on the ground after Storm Callum as inspiration for our creative writing. We imagined we were leaves and wrote about our experience during Storm Callum.

Lots of fun this week taking part in Maths Week activities. Working on our Place Value Octopus.

Lots of our furry and feathered friends have been in to visit us this term.
