Lest We Forget

Today we listened to The Poppy Story and learned about Remembrance Day.   We heard the poem In Flanders Fields by John McCrae and thought it was very sad.

We made poppies to take home and put in our windows for tomorrow, 11th November, to remember and think about servicemen and women who have served their country in any war, not just the First World War.

 

We also created some effective silhouette remembrance art work to display in our classroom.   Here is a small selection.




We will be thinking and remembering about veterans tomorrow at 11.00 am.

 

Remembrance

Everyone in P7A made a poppy to bring home today.  Please display it in your house – you could tape it to a window or display it in a vase on a windowsill. We have also been finding out about the origins of Remembrance Day and the use of the poppy as a commemorative symbol.  We then used the information we found out to write super reports during our writing lessons.

Poppies

We made poppies from tissue paper and learned about the story of the poppy this week. Poppies are coming home today so you can display them in your window.

Remembrance

P4a have been making a “stained glass window” poppy display ahead of Remembrance Day tomorrow.

The children will bring their poppies home today should you wish to display them at home.
