Barn Owls have written some wonderful letters using their class reader as their inspiration – thinking of the sites and sounds that they may encounter on their journey around the world
They continue to learn about sound in science and took a closer look at the ear this week
Barn Owls have been investigating how sound travels and were able to get a visual representation using a tuning fork and water. The sound waves could easily be seen – they made quite a splash!
Barn Owls have started their exciting topic Around the World in 80 Days. They looked at maps of the world and planned their own routes around the world.
We made passports and thought about what we would need in our suitcases, using Phileas Fogg’s adventures from the Jules Verne novel.
We have completed some Cartouches (an Egyptian burial plate which is shaped like an oval that is dedicated to an important deceased person, such as a Pharaoh) and became Pharaoh for the day!
Barn Owls have been learning about Judaism and have produced some wonderful double page spreads demonstrating their understanding of the religion. They have presented them in their own way and shown their understanding through some excellent written work. Well done!
Barn Owls wish you all Merry Christmas!
They enjoyed a paper chain competition and writing their shape poetry as well as taking on the main roles in ‘It’s a Party’.
In French Barn Owls have researched how they celebrate Christmas in France:
They have done some more work with Calligrams – creating an image out of words:
….and they are working hard with the Christmas Play:
The whole school were involved with creating these lovely Christmas decorations using only recycled materials. Thank you for all the donations of CD’s – we made plenty to decorate the Church. Come and see them when we go to the Church for the Carols next week.
To start Anti-Bullying week we all wore odd socks for Odd Socks Day.
Barn Owls created excellent posters advertising how to treat your teeth so that they last you a very long time!
