Our Y4/5, Y5/6 and Y6 children have been working on a creative curriculum topic: MIners and Banners which is closely linked with the Bicentenary Felling Pit disaster. Children have worked with the CLC to create Miners Comic strips and they have even dressed up as characters from that era and used green screen technology to make photos and videos of what it would have been like to live around that time.
Take a look at our photographs from the day.
In Literacy we were Viking Warriors.
"It was brilliant!" said Connor Alberts.
Whilst studying the Tudors we looked at Tudor miniatures and then created our own from photographs.
This fabulous minature was created by Gian Narciso. Well done!
As part of our Tudor topic we created Tudor homes.
"It was fun making Tudor homes." said Sasha Jobson.
In Year 4 we are currently researching and learning about the topic of ancient Egypt. So far we have thoroughly enjoyed investigating how the pyramids were made and how the ancient Egyptians communicated through the use of hieroglyphics. We have even had a chance to get up close and personal with characters taken from actual ancient Egyptian stories such as Rhodopus, the Pharaoh and Horus taken from the first ever story of Cinderella. We in year 4 are still very excited as next lesson we are finding out all about mummification we'll keep you up to date on all the gory facts!
In Year 3/4 we have been learning about Ancient Egypt! Today we had the chance to investigate the mysterious death of the pharaoh Tutankhamen! In groups we looked at a range of evidence and tried to decide how we thought he might have died. The evidence suggested a range of possible explanations, including illness, accident and murder! After studying the evidence each group came to their own conclusions about what might have happened and supported their arguments using the evidence provided. As a class we thought 'King Tut' had an accident on his chariot because the evidence included x-rays of head and knee injuries. We also knew the young pharaoh liked to ride chariots, a fast and dangerous sport. Year 3/4 really enjoyed being detectives for the afternoon!
