Let the battle truly commence!

In history, we have been learning about the battle for the crown in 1066 after King Edward the Confessor died. We studied the Battle of Stamford Bridge, the deadly war fought between Harold Godwinson and Harold Hardrada. We recreated the battle on our field, with half of us pretending to be the Nords and the other half pretending to be the English. What fun we had bringing history to life!
On Thursday it was World Book Day. We came in our pyjamas and took part in a variety of different activities including designing our own bookmark for the bookshop Read in Holmfirth, listening to the book Kobe Ketchup and the Food Bank Adventure by Madelaine Black being read by Madelaine and snuggled down with our buddies to read some special books from home!
This week, Conifers thought about the changeable weather as we move towards Spring and our book was My Friend the Weather Monster. We sorted lots of adjectives and worked in teams to create some fabulous collages using natural materials. After we had warmed up with our hot chocolate, we made cakes to take to the weather monster in our mud kitchen and built caves to hide in (just like the weather monster at the top of the mountain.)
Have a lovely weekend and keep a look out for the aurora borealis!
