Well the summer holidays have flown by. We have all had a relaxing break and this week we returned excitedly to start our time in Year 4. This week we have been very busy already. We worked together to set our 'Class Pledge' We had lots of discussions and we had to think about how to make sure the pledge we make is positive so no 'Don't' rules' were allowed. We came up with a 'Class Charter' which we will unveil next week.
We began our exploration of World War One this week by finding out about why the war started and the conditions in the trenches. We wrote a diary entry as a soldier which was really hard as we had to pretend to be a soldier and think about how they would have felt. We sketched poppies as they are used to commemorate all the soldiers who fought for us.
On friday we discussed our aspirations and what we want to work towards. We had lots of great career choices for our futures so we decided to create a augmented reality display for our classroom. We videoed each other talking about what we wanted to be and we also took photographs. We will now create a display so that when you scan our photographs you will see our videos. We cannot wait to create it !
A great start to our term with lots of exciting activities planned for the next few weeks. we cannot wait!
