In Term 5 for English, we will be using the short animated movie called 'Baboon on the Moon.' We will be finding out about real life baboons and exploring more about the Baboon from the video. Watch this space!
We had great fun on our India day at the end of Term 4. We found out all about Rangoli patterns, we explored the art of Henri Rousseau and created our own 'Tiger in a tropical storm' and decorated paper elephants. We also make some bombay potatoes that were delicious and had a go at either Bollywood dancing or table cricket. Here's a taster of the day;
In term 4, in English, we explored the well known story of Jack and the Beanstalk.
We looked at the story from the giant's point of view and also explored Jack's feelings. We really enjoyed working with Year 1 to produce our own versions of Jack and the Beanstalk.
Do you remember our story maps from term 1 and term 2? Can you retell the stories of 'The Twits' and 'Beegu?'
