Monkeys are this weeks Table of the Week. Don't forget to bring in your show and tell on Monday!

In English the children looked at a small version of fire by watching the flame on candle (we discussed how big fires are dangerous). We looked at the colour of the flame and discussed the different colours at the top and the bottom of the flame. We looked at what happens if you blow gently across the flame (without blowing it out) and we looked at what happened to the wick when the flame was blown out. The children then used a range of vocabulary to describe the fire. 

Today in RE we have been talking about whether it is important to be thankful. We read the story from the Bible about the thankful leper. The children then acted out feeling ill, being ignored, getting better and saying thank you. The children imagined how Jesus might have felt about the leper who came back and the nine who didn't. 

We have started to recall the events of The Great Fire of London through drama. 

Great vaulting in gymnastics today!

In DT the children have been finding out about Tudor houses. They have used a variety of materials to make their own Tudor houses.
