We started by finding out who they were and where they came from, then we looked at a time line to see when they invaded.

Mr Worrall came into school, he dressed as a Roman soldier and told us more about them. Do you know they stole ideas off other people and improved them?

We had a fantastic afternoon on the beach at St Annes today.

The  children collected shells, seaweed, driftwood and pebbles to make seaside sculptures.

We looked at the sand dunes and the children commented on how big the beach was, it was a long way to the sea.

The children enjoyed climbing the sand dunes.

They all had a good time and didn’t want to leave.

Mrs Wiseman

Have you checked the temperature outside?  We have looked at the thermometer it was -2 outside yesterday and today.

It has been very cold and frosty.

We looked at the weather in different countries and found out that it is hot in places like Auckland, New Zealand  because it is in the southern hemisphere and it is  summertime there.

Today we painted pictures of holiday places.

Do you have any photographs of different places that we could talk about?

Merry Christmas 3W

I hope you have all had a great Christmas Day.  I look forward to hearing all about it when we are back at school.

Please try and come to school dressed as a Victorian child to make our day as authentic as possible.

Boys – wear a cotton shirt, a waist coat, a neckerchief , long or short trousers and a flat cap.

Girls- wear a dress or long skirt and top,  a  white pinafore  or apron over the dress, a mop cap or headscarf  and a shawl.

The outfit can simply be a shirt and neckerchief for boys and a dress and shawl for girls

You can have ragged dirty clothes like a poor Victorian or smart clothes like a wealthy Victorian.

We will be doing different Victorian activities on the day.

We have found out about similes and synonyms.

Can you find similes  in other stories?

We are making our own Flat Stanley models and thinking about what adventures they may have.

We sorted out events into a time line.

Do you know when Blackpool first got gas lighting or when Victoria Pier was opened?

We have also looked at our 2,5 and 10 times tables.

We know our 2′s are all even and end in 2,4,6,8,or 0.

We know our 10′s ends in 0 and our 5′s ends in 5 or 0.

been giving each other compliments and sharing our talents
