A Message from Mr C Jones

Thank you to Y4/5 for letting me be part of your Dragon's Den. It was great to take part in it and to the outstanding work you have all done in your project. All of the presentations were so good that I would have liked everyone to win!

The amount of thinking you have put into your products was amazing. Your presentations to the scary dragons were very confident. I hope that everyone in class is very proud of what you have done.

Children in Year 4/5 have just finished studying the Earth, Sun and Moon in Science. They thoroughly enjoyed this unit. Here are some of our 3D models of the Earth, Sun and Moon that the children are particularly proud of!

Children in Year 4/5 have enjoyed learning about the many forms of poetry. They have particularly enjoyed acting out and writing there own haiku poems. Here are some images of the children acting out imagery within poems we have studied by Pie Corbett and Valerie Bloom.
