This week we have been focusing on our topic text ‘Wild’, by Emily Hughes. Having previously described the main character and setting, this week we started to focus on some of the main events that happen in the story. We started with the part where the little girl gets caught in a trap by animal hunters, writing letters to the hunters to offer them advice. They wrote back to us, explaining their decision, to which we responded with some further thoughts about the situation. Later in the week we put ourselves in role as the main character and mapped out the story. We used our story maps to start rewriting her story in the first person.
In maths we have been recapping and continuing to learn about place value, while in science we have discussed different food groups, identified which foods belong to which groups and then designed a healthy meal.
Despite the heat, the children have tried their best and worked hard!
Have a lovely weekend,
Mrs Lucas, Mrs Marsh and Mrs Scott
