Gas Mask Boxes

We were set the challenge this week to draw a net of a cuboid to create our gas masks boxes. This prove to be quite challenging but we all followed the instructions carefully and were successful in making gas mask boxes. We all made sure our nets were accurate sizes, using rulers and protractors, checking the angles. We are all ready for an evacuation now!





Drama - Evacuation Scenes

In drama with Mrs Linklater, we have been creating freeze frames in small groups. We developed the skill of conveying different emotions and feelings in these scenes to convince our audience. In each group video, the children are in a scene 30 minutes before they arrived at the train station for the evacuation. Each group then decided on music to add to their scenes. Well done everyone!

On Thursday, we went outside for some fresh air and had our first tag rugby session. We developed our team working skills and developed our passing skills. We enjoyed a peedie game at the end too!








Drama with Mrs Linklater

We have been develop a range of drama skills this term with Mrs Linklater. We have been learning to express different emotions and how to convey these to an audience. We have been acting out being evacuees moving to the countryside.

We have been learning about key events from World War II. We worked together in small groups to put key events in chronological order. We had long timelines!
