Year 4 Poetry Recital
We loved learning, understanding and sharing Some Other Names for Rain by Kate Wakeling. We even invited an audience into class to listen!
English
Black History Month
This month we learnt about several significant black people linked to creativity! One of them was Benjamin Zephaniah. He created a wonderful poem that unites us all. Year 1 did a brilliant job reciting the poem!
Ada Lovelace present the Story of Freedom
We loved celebrating Black History Month by sharing our learning about Amy Ashwood Garvey in assembly.
Autumn Gilt by Valerie Bloom
This half term Year 3 Jemison have recited their new class poem, which is all about Autumn.
Watch us perform it here!
The Iron Man and The Space Dragon
We decided to act out a play of Chapter 5. We considered our character voices and actions.
Year 4 Class Trip to YSP
Having learned about Barbara Hepworth and her love of nature in our art research, we were very excited to see her work for ourselves. We enjoyed discussing The Family of Man and walking around, appreciating the stunning surroundings. After lunch, we participated in a Walk, Talk, Make workshop based on our experiences.
Acrostic Poems
We explored a range of acrostic poems to learn about what they are and gather inspiration for our own writing.
Autumn walk…
We went on an autumn walk around the school grounds. We collected lots of autumn objects. We will use these as inspiration for our poetry writing.
Autumn word banks
We worked in groups to create class word banks for our autumn poems. We gathered exciting adjectives we could use to help us describe a range of autumn objects.
Autumn Acrostic Poems
We created some beautiful Autumn acrostic poems. We used our real-life experiences and our shared word bank to support our writing.
Headings and sub-headings
We have explored headings and sub-headings in non-chronological reports. We know that a heading tells us what the whole report is about and that a sub-heading tells us what each paragraph is about.
