First we pretended we had a tram in the classroom. Charlie, the conductor, gave out the tickets but only if we paid 5 pence.
Shane, the driver, took us all on a high speed tram journey that we watched on our IWB. Every time we stopped we were allowed to get off or on.
We then debated whether we should have trams and we made posters to show our point of view. After a vote we decided that it was good to have trams.
We then made our own trams that had to show an environmental message. They were a little tricky to put together but we all helped each other. We finally designed our own uniforms and logo for the trams, again with an environmental theme. We hope you like our finished work.
Last week we went for a walk around Bulwell. It was market day and we completed a tally chart of what we could see. We saw lots of different shops.
This week we are going to be time travellers and travel back 100 years to see what Bulwell used to be like. This second photograph shows the market square in 1900. The shops look very different to how they look now. What else has changed?
Next week is science week and we will all be doing lots of fun activities on Forces and Electricity.
It’s Science week across the whole country so there are lots of events going on. For example digging up fossils in Nottinghamshire. Just look up National Science week on the internet and search for local events.
It’s also our last full week in our Old School. It will be sad to leave this building but think about all the wonderful new rooms we will have in the new building. I wonder what you will write in your information books this week about buildings.
Last week we lookied at stories from the Old Testament.
We read the story of creation and produced a sequence of pictures that described the events. We then debated whether we believed this version or whether we thought it it could not be true.
We watched a powerpoint about the story of Noah and then built and tested our own boats.
We heard and acted out the story of Daniel and the lions and wrote our own newspaper report.
We finally produed our own poster describing out feelings about the Bible.
Hi there 2PB. I hope you are all having a good holiday.
