All About Me

Well our first topic is complete! We have learnt the names of our bones and the purpose of our skeleton. We have enjoyed having Bob the skeleton in our classroom and say thank you to Florence and her Mum for leading him to us. We enjoyed making our moving skeleton and used these to try to recall as many bones names as we were able. To understand how we move we watched some fun video clips and made a model of a muscle using card and elastic bands.

We then moved onto finding out what happens inside our body. We named the major internal organs and then found out in more detail what happens to our food when we have eaten. We loved seeing the journey food takes and completed some great written word explaining this process.

In literacy we used a book called ‘The Boy at the Back of the Class’. We loved listening to the story and our written work has included diary entries and a description of a market. It has created great discussion about Refugees and what is happening in our current world.

After working hard we are all excited about our next topic – Discovery!
