Mystery solvers at work

We took the sash and the letter down to the ICT suite to research Florence and Scutari. We found lots to help us on our virtual learning pages.









We got a certificate for our learning!


We learned a lot by playing a game






The sash and the letter

We will share our learning with you very soon!

A mystery bag!

Mrs Martin found a mystery suitcase in the small hall and brought it in to us. We didn't know who it belonged to! Some of us thought we should open it, but others thought it might not be safe. We decided we should have a decision alley!

There were some great reasons why we should or should not open it, like

'It might be private!'

'There might be something dangerous inside!'

''There might be a name tag that will help us return it.'

At the end, the majority of us decided we should open the suitcase!

Before we did that, we thought about how the owner of the suitcase might feel. Then we wondered how the suitcase might be feeling! We had some great thoughts like

'I wish someone would open me because I haven't been opened for 100 years.'

'I have been waiting around for someone to find me.'

'I want to go back to my owner. Please help me.'

We decided that we would need protective gloves before we opened the case, just in case there was something in it that would hurt or fingers or skin.




Look what we found inside the suitcase!



A letter




Some old looking clothes


A lantern


A shawl


Some aprons


Evie thought this was a sash and showed us how to wear it 


There were some hats too.





Amalie read the letter. It was written many years ago and was from someone called Florence. We have a big mystery to solve!

Beebots

This is an old post that has been floating about in cyberspace!!

This afternoon we learned the word algorithm, then learned how to give commands to the beebots! Caitlin thought it was great! 




The Farmer's Lunch

Today a small group of us practised improving the sentences in 'The Farmer's Lunch'. We used lots of great adjectives, like crispy, tasty, crunchy, yellow, juicy and we used phrases to make the sentences more exciting. This will help us write our own stories!

Look what we made at home!

I made a shaker maker and the picture was Snow White. By Florrie. I made three fimo bears a Daddy a Mummy and Baby bear. By Olivia.

I think they are most marvellous! Miss BB

Perfect patterns

We used viewfinders to find patterns around the school, then we enlarged them. Now we are using oil pastels to make them colourful. You'll have to wait and see what we do with them!

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?
