This week was very exciting. We had the Rookie Rock Stars in all week and the children loved working with them. We are really looking forward to the concert next week.

We were also excited because we started our new topic about The Celts who lived during the Iron Age. The children discussed and shared what they knew about the Celts and discussed what they wanted to do within the topic. We started by looking at clips about the Celts, sorted a historic timeline and used Atlases and maps to plot where the Celtic nations were in Europe.

We learned about the history of Guy Fawkes, Bonfire night and how to keep ourselves safe. We also learned about Acrostic poetry and used the word ‘Fireworks’ to write a poem of our own. Then we made firework pictures using chalks and glitter paint.

Fizzing fireworks

In the air

Rockets roaring

Everyone stare!

Why are fireworks dangerous

On bonfire night everyone cheers

Rocket shooting fireworks

Kool fireworks whizzing by

Some people cheer.  by Julian

 

Fireworks fireworks

In the dark sky

Red, purple, pink, blue, orange and yellow

Everyone staring at the sparkling sparks

Waiting for more

Over the moon fireworks go

Rockets whizzing

Kids cheering

Sparklers sparkling.  by Evan

 

These are just a few of the wonderful poems P3/4 wrote.  We’re going to put them up for display along with all the wonderful artwork.

 

Well done P3/4.
