Y3LP have been exploring some of the focus individuals for Black History Month. We listened to some of George Bridgetower’s music and then watched a video all about his life. We worked in pairs to record key facts to use in our information posters tomorrow.

Y3LP are working on their performance of ‘Autumn Gilt’ by Valerie Bloom. We are working in groups to memorise a verse and add actions to aid our performance.

We have explored how Valerie Bloom’s language in ‘Autumn Gilt’ creates images in the reader’s head. We then created our own interpretations of the language by choosing a phrase and creating a picture to represent the phrase.

This week we carved a pumpkin and created some instructions together. We then wrote our own instructions later in the week.

Y3LP are developing their retrieval skills by locating information from non-fiction texts.

Y3LP had a lovely visit to Cudworth Library. Our lovely librarian, Gill, told the children all about how the library works and how to join. We then completed a scavenger hunt and spent some time exploring the beautiful books.
