This week have been looking at a number of things as part of our UK topic.

One thing we have been looking at is Coatbridge, our local area. We began researching how Coatbridge got it’s name then we became engrossed finding all about Coatbridge throughout the years.

Did you know the Coatbridge fountain has been moved many times in the past? Look at these photos below. Can you guess the decade?

We really liked the ones with the horse and carts!

Keep an eye on school bags for Monday’s homework. A bit different this week. A Coatbridge challenge!

We have also been continuing to read through The BFG. We are at the part where Sophie and the giant head to Buckingham palace. We followed their journey via our smart board and we were fascinated with Buckingham Palace. What a lovely building! We even had a wee sneaky peak inside. Very impressive and glamorous. We decided to draw it in art and decided to write about meeting the queen in story writing! Imagine!
