Our Class Poem

We love having a poem a day, so we wrote a poem together about the Great Fire of London and put it on display. What do you think?

Bakery buns part 2

Ella was great at making our bakery buns too! Her photo got missed off the first post.

Meeting Samuel Pepys!

We travelled back in time this morning to 1666! It was amazing because Samuel Pepys was here! He told us all about the fire and where it started.

Samuel Pepys also told us how awful the Lord Mayor was and that he didn't want to blow up houses to create a fire break, because he was worried he would have to pay for them. He told us how he watched all the people in the streets trying to get away from the fire and to the Thames.

We learned lots from Samuel Pepys, but we were also able to amaze him with all the facts that we know!

Thomas Farynor's Bakery Buns!

We made some buns today like the ones they would have had in 1666. We all thought they were scrumptious! You can find the recipe here . Enjoy them!

More film making!

The actors have been great! They have been given some great directions too, like 'Look really scared!'

We watched some on the interactive white board. We told the film makers what we thought wa fabulous about their film, then gave tips on how to improve next time.

Fantastic films!

Film makers!

We started work on our Great Fire of London films today. We learned about giving directions to actors and how to use the iPads to create our films.

The folk in the fire

We met some of the people from London who were fighting the fire. They told us how awful it was and how hard it was to fight the fire.
We met a maid who was stuck in the fire. It was terrible!
