Hi there. Caspian here.
Today I’m going to tell you about what we have been doing for our topic this term. We’ve been doing WW1. The class has been reading a novel about WW1 with the main character being a boy named Billy Stevens. He lied to join the war in 1917 when he was 16 with his friend Rob. At the moment, the page we are at describes Christmas in the trenches, with temporary peace among the troops. We’ve also made WW1 posters, WW1 soldiers, inventions from the war, and models of the inventions too. We’re also writing about Billy’s story.
In P.E we have “War Training” in which we carry wooden blocks (bombs) through “trenches” and retrieve them. If that wasn’t hard enough we’ve also got German soldiers throwing beanbags (bullets) at us with even more Germans in biplanes!
We are also making a WW1 stop motion animation.
