This week we have been completing our assessments and I have been so impressed with the recall and resillience shown throughout.
In RE we found evidence of Jesus being our saviour by looking at various parables from The Bible. The class showed how much they learnt by answering an enquiry question with evidence from the lesson.
In computing we looked at various filming techniques such as zooming, panning and tilting. We then applied this knowledge to create our own storyboards and films about a topic we are learning in school. Our science lesson was full of interesting information about our moon. We learnt about the moon phases and how the moon reflects light from the sun.
On Thursday, Class 4 had an absolute thrill showing off their creative skills in activities relating to our Second World War topic. After learning some more about the rationing that was so vital to our war efforts, we tested our cooking skills by making a 1940’s variation on scones that substituted mash potatoes for milk. The results truly speak for themselves!
In our third lesson of the day, we took part in a WW2 themed dance session. During this activity, we explored key roles, settings, and experiences from this era, using gesture and movement to represent them. We also learned about popular 1940s dance styles and discussed how movement was influenced by social contexts of the time. To end this lesson, we learnt and performed a dance to ‘In the Mood’.
In the afternoon, our classroom became Bletchley Park as Alan Turing sent us on a secret mission as the newest recruits to the Anglo-American Decipherment of German Communication Department of the British Military. We were first introduced to the fascinating world of cryptography and made our own basic ciphers. Afterwards, we used an online Enigma Machine to decrypt German communications and find out vital details about an incoming attack to the South West coast before it was too late! It is fair to say that we all had a splendid day and the costumes were fantastic.
