Nonsense Poems.  This week our writing has been themed around ‘A Bugs Life’. One of our writing tasks, was to create a nonsense acrostic poem about Insects. The pupils worked in pairs to research their given bug and then used their information to write their nonsense poems. There was a lot of hilarity in the class and the pupils were all fully engaged in the task.

UK Parliament Week. For our Big Question this week and into next, we are focusing on everything linked with the ‘UK parliament’. The class were learning about what a democracy is, key people associated linked to Shetland and the UK as well as how elections work. As part this, pupils all created their own campaign posters as to why they should be voted for. These will be used as part of a bigger task next week.
