African Stories

The boys have enjoyed reading a range of African stories this half term. All our English work was based around the book.

The boys enjoyed learning about what and adjective is and began to use them to make their writing more descriptive.

 

The boys learnt about time words and wrote instructions on how to make a pancake.

The boys have also been learning to order alphabetically, alliteration, full stop, capital letters and writing a list.

The other stories the boys enjoyed studying this half term were:

The boys had a visit from Mr Walker who spoke to the boys about his experience of living in Kenya. Mr Walker told the boys how he opened a School in Kenya and met the many beautiful African animals.

 

Have a spooktacular half term!

African T-Shirts

Firstly the boys used a tie dye technique to colour their T-Shirts.

The boys twisted their T-Shirts in the middle. Once it was in a tight ball they tied elastic bands around their T-Shirt. They had lots of fun choosing the colours to decorate their T-Shirts.

  

The following week once the T-Shirts were washed and dry the boys used animal stamps and fabric paint to add more colour to their designs.

  

The boys will wear their t-shirts and masks to our Pre Prep assembly after half term to show the other boys in Pre Prep. 🙂
