We have been working really hard on our Welsh and have enjoyed learning some new games to help us develop our use of the Welsh language.
Our favourite game at the moment is secret agent although Miss Williams loves the sound of us singing the days of the week!

We had a fantastic day at St Fagans during the Spring Term. We were able to visit the Victorian classroom as well as the houses during the Victorian period.

                                                                 Lesson 6- Art
Those children who were slouching had the back straightener and we used the Welsh Not for any one who spoke welsh! 4 children in our class also wore the Dunce's cap!

 
 
We all enjoyed our visit from Jack Trelawny today. He gave us a sneaky peak of one of his books and gave us ideas how to begin writing our own stories.

  Think about:
Who?
What?
Where?
When?
Why?
How?
If?


       Can you answer these questions about the animal below?

Year 5 will be holding their Victorian Day on Wednesday 20th March. I wonder what we will be doing?!
Don’t forget to come to school in your Victorian costumes!


We will also be visiting St Fagans on Tuesday 26th March so remember your packed lunch! I’m sure we will have lots of fun.


 
 
What a fantastic day! I was super proud of everyone in J8 who represented their houses on stage, you were extremely brave :)

What do you imagine when you read this piece of
text?

‘…But there were doors in the hall as well--stout oak doors. One of these the Badger opened, and they found themselves in a kitchen.
The floor brick, and on the hearth burnt a fire of logs in the middle of the room
stood a table of boards placed on trestles, with benches. Plates on the shelves
                                          in the room and hanging were hams, dried herbs, onions, and eggs.'

                              This is what we imagined......

In P.E, we have been making our own magnetic dances. We discussed the properties of magnets and how we could show this in dance.
