This week the following people did their class talks on Victorian Inventions:

Well done to all those people that gave a class talk.
Finally, a huge well done to both P6 classes and all the staff involved for putting on a wonderful production of the Wizard of Oz!
All the class talk topics sound great and Cameron is glad that his is now done! Talking about cars with three wheels, Cameron’s Granda’s very first car only had three wheels and his Grannie used to worry that it would get blown over in the wind:)
Hello 5m,
You are all sharing your interests in Victorian inventions and helping one another to learn more through your class talks. I’m sure some of you were nervous but listening and talking skills are a key part of your Literacy learning. If you’ve had your turn, you can relax and enjoy listening to others being a quality audience member. I see a few of you have found out more about the telephone. Imagine no phones or mobiles today if this invention had never been created!
Have a good week,
Mrs Spence
