We are really loving the story of James and the Giant Peach because the characters are brilliantly written and the story is very exciting.
Owls have been working in groups to act out scenes and write their own play script using stage directions and voices to create interesting characters. Lots of acting skills in action!
Swimming is going well. The Owls are practising different strokes and thinking about their breathing technique.
Who/what was a Parliamentarian and a Royalist? Lots of learning questions about the type of armour and weapons that the soldiers would have used:
Why did they not wear a full suit of armour?
What are the names of some of the parts of a muskett?
Did they really wear a wide brimmed hat and feather on the battlefield?
A weekend wonder… it is Eurovision this weekend so I wonder if you can find the different flags of the countries taking part? How many countries are taking part? What colour is the most frequently used in the flag designs?
Have a good weekend everyone.
