WW2 | mcps

P6 boys and girls have worked extremely hard completing their World War 2 homework task. All the children were given the choice of what they wanted to do by picking different activities from their homework grid, these included; paint/make/sew three flags for countries involved in the war, create a box full of items , photos and books from World War 2, draw a bar graph to show the number of people in armies in World War 2 and research what foods were rationed.

The children fully embraced the challenge and brought in a variety of World War 2 artifacts, which had been passed down from great grand parents. We even had a couple of model airplanes make an appearance.

This homework task was very successful, I asked the children what they enjoyed the most and a lot of them said it was spending time with their parents/carers when completing the tasks.

I would like to say thank you to all parents and carers who helped their children with their homework.

Enjoy your weekend.

LI: We are learning to identify the leaders of the ‘Allied’ and ‘Axis’ Countries.

All of the children worked in groups to research one of the five leaders – Winston Churchill, Franklin Roosevelt, Hitler, Joseph Stalin and Benito Mussolini. Once the children had completed their leader they then began to draw a life size picture. When all leaders are complete, each group will present their leader and mini biography to the rest of the class.

As our topic is WW2, we have been letting the air raid siren off during different times of the day to give the children some experience of what it might be like during the war. As you can see from our pictures below the children know exactly what to do. Can anyone spot Katie?

I hope you all have a lovely September weekend.
