Update from Mrs Marshall 5M

In Year 5 this week, we have started to create our internal structures for our Modroc sculptures! The children used newspaper and masking tape to do this. We also enjoyed writing poetry on National Poetry Day (Thursday), investigating poetry by Walter de la Mare and Edward Lear and from this were able to write a poem in the style of Edward Lear’s ‘The Owl and the Pussy Cat. Our knowledge is growing about Space as we learned about how day and night are caused and were amazed to hear that in some parts of the world at some points in the year, there is almost no daylight and it is dark for most of each day!
