Topic

As we will be looking at the Titanic, I thought we should try to find out about what life was like in 1912 compared to today. On the sheet below, you will see a comparison chart. Either copy a similar chart into your book or you can edit this sheet and print it. I would like Year 3 to compare 3 ways of life, year 4 to compare 4 ways of life and year 5 to compare 5 ways of life. You can choose any areas that you like. There is a video link at the bottom of the page for you to start your research but you may need to complete some research yourself. Try to include two – three bullet points for each year in each of your chosen ways of life.

Something extra?

Try to read the next chapter of your book or the next few pages before next week.

Scary Writing Week.

Class 2 were very excited this morning for the start of our scary writing week. We imagined what our classroom would look like at midnight and have tried to develop powerful description appealing to our five senses. We look forward to developing these ideas into poems tomorrow. 

In the afternoon we listened to the fantastic storyteller, Jake Evans. He made us all laugh and scared us through his storytelling techniques. We are hoping to borrow some of his ideas for creating atmosphere when we read our poems tomorrow.
