Year 5 English - Science Fiction Independent Write
After weeks of exploring distant galaxies and futuristic colonies, Year 5 have officially wrapped up their Science Fiction unit! For their final independent writing piece, the children drew inspiration from Roy Apps’ ‘Time Spinner’. They were tasked with writing a gripping tale about a time traveller from a sterile, silent future who suddenly appears in our vibrant, noisy, modern-day playground. Building on our recent drama and ‘Show, Don’t Tell’ workshops, the children have done a brilliant job of describing the sensory shock their characters felt. From the chaotic shrieks of a football match to the strange, earthy smell of the grass, their stories are packed with atmospheric detail and high-level vocabulary. We have been so impressed by their creativity and their ability to help their travellers find a way back to the future! If a time traveller appeared in our playground today and could take you anywhere in history (past or future), where would you choose to go? Let us know in the comments!
Year 4 Science STEM Challenge
Year 4 had a great Science lesson this week, with a STEM challenge. We had to get in to a 'STEM' mindset, incorporating a wide range of analytical and cognitive thinking skills, critical thinking, complex problem-solving, and creativity. Our group task was an interesting one, but Year 4 approached it with enthusiasm and teamwork, each team managing to complete the challenge. Well done!
