Weekly Update 13.10.23
Posted: Oct 12, 2023 by: K Atkinson (k.atkinson) on: Pear Tree Class Blog
The most exciting part of our week was the Great Fire of London workshop on Wednesday.
The children learnt how the fire started, why the fire spread so quickly and how the fire was eventually put out. Each child built and painted their own house on Pudding Lane. In the afternoon they watched the houses burn and were amazed at how quickly the fire spread. We discussed what we could see, hear and feel and then spoke about why it would not be possible for a fire to spread so quickly today.
In English we have started to learn about Samuel Pepys' diary and the children will be writing their own diaries next week. In maths we have continued learning about addition and have begun to find all the number bonds to numbers within 10.
Thank you to everyone who has booked a parents' consultation meeting for next week. I look forward to discussing your child's learning and progress with you.
Enjoy the weekend and I will see you again on Monday.
Miss Atkinson
