John Kane - Read Author Event
This week, we tuned into one of Read Bookshop's author events. This time around it featured the Irish author, John Kane, who read and discussed his latest book 'What is Black and White?'. The class absolutely loved listening to the book and joining in with John in his drawing workshop too. It made us all laugh and smile and I know the kids will be keeping an eye out for his books in future.
The Mousehole Cat
In our formal English lessons the class have been getting to know the story of 'The Mousehole Cat' and have started to produce their very own storyboards of the story from the point of view of the character Tom. This story has given the class a great window into the past and an understanding of what coastal areas may have been like in the past - minus the Storm Cat of course!
Campervans
In keeping with our seaside topic, the class have designed camper vans to take them on trips to the seaside. Today, they have started the construction of their models and given them a coat of paint... so apologies for any paint covered uniform!
Seasides in the Past
Previously, class two started learning about what people did at the seaside in the past. To build on this understanding, we delved into the reasons why seaside trips became a tradition and how technological advances like the train-lines led to more people getting away for holidays.
Making digital music
Our computing topic at the moment is making music using technology and the class loved making rhythms on chrome music labs here .
