Our weekly reflection

I learnt this week about dinosaurs dying out. I have been learning about why insects make cocoons. The caterpillar covers itself up into a cocoon and then it rips the cocoon off and changes into a butterfly or moth.

Our project question was why do we have trains underground? It's so people can get to places that are far far away that they can't get to by car or by foot. The first ever underground line was opened in London in 1863.
Jake and Keanan

It's been amazing working with Filippa to do our project. We've made a poster about volcanoes and we are proud of it and one day we'll be making our model of a volcano.

I have liked topic because I've found loads of new things out about archaeology. We found some images of archaeologists and we wrote sentences around them. We put the sentences to look like they had been dug up by the archaeologist!

Our weekly reflection

This week we have been rehearsing and showing our class assembly to the rest of the school. It was a little bit embarrassing but fun overall. My mum said it was great!

Savannah

I felt a bit embarrassed it was fun in the end!

Tyler

I think it would have been better if people talked a bit louder!
Chelsey

I really enjoyed it because it's been ages since we've done an assembly and I'm glad Miss Clare and Miss MacMahon got to do this one.

Caitlin

We had fun making Mother's Day cards and on world book day we all brought in our favourite books and spoke about them!

Our writing this week - Monday

This week we are continuing writing an adventure story with an underground setting. We are working hard to create a story that is exciting and suspenseful, using lots of description to show how our character feels in an unusual and creepy setting. We are also trying our best to add cliff hangers!

4EL: When it is your turn to blog, write your best sentence or paragraph on this post as a comment.

Visitors: please read our writing and leave comments about our work! We would love to hear what you think of our writing. You could give us tips to improve our writing or even have a go at rewriting our sentences!!!
