Today, Class 10 have been feature detectives. They had to read a persuasive piece of text and identify the features from the ones we discussed yesterday. The children looked really closely to identify emotive language, repetition and exaggeration to name but a few. They then used these examples and built on them to make their own.

Here are Class 10 listening attentively to the firemen who came to tell us all about fire safety. The children are confident in what they have to do if they were to be involved in a fire and they gave us lots of pointers to share with our parents and carers about checking our fire alarms and how important it is for all doors to be closed at bedtime!

The children were then quizzed and they got all ten questions correct! Super stars ✨✨

I have read many beautiful chocolate poems this afternoon. I have such a creative class with creative parents and Mrs Clay have really enjoyed this afternoon. I hope you have all had a fabulous afternoon.

Class 10 love taking advantage of sunny days and taking their learning outside. The children have been inferring from the text and making predictions.

Class 10 have created some fabulous Quinten Blake style paintings of Willy Wonka. I am blown away by the attention to detail. They are simply amazing and I am so proud of their efforts.

 

Class 10 had a fantastic time at York chocolate story yesterday. They walked around the chocolate story museum and they tried lots of chocolate. They learnt about the oldest chocolate bars and how chocolate is made. They also learnt lots about kit-kats. The children then got to make their own chocolate lolly and chocolate bar. They had lots of fun and they were so polite and a credit to our school.

A huge thank you to all of the parents who came to support us on our trip- we couldn’t do it without you and we hope you enjoyed the trip too!

 

Class had a superb time at York’s chocolate discovery and workshop. Make sure you ask them for some facts about KitKats!
