We have learnt about inequality and racism during this Rosa Parks topic. Recognising that it is unfair, unkind and inhumane to treat people different because of the colour of their skin, gender, disability, if they wear glasses or not etc.
We have been learning about Rosa Parks in English and acting out her life to help us remember to write sentences. #LovePlover
There are times when I wish I had recorded a lesson. Today was definitely one of those times. I’ve never seen so many over dramatic children posing as Roman soldiers in a variety of situations. When they ‘came to life’ as I touched their heads, some of their comments were absolutely priceless:
“Are we nearly there yet?” “Outta the way I’m gonna be sick!” “Hold on for your life, there’s another wave coming!”
“How cold is this water?!” “No one said about this before we set off.” “So…cold…so…far…”
“Where on Earth am I?” “What is that supposed to be?” “Why is it so wet and so cold?”
“Claudius ordered us to build a settlement but I’m too tired. I must sleep!” “Sleep now, build later.”
“Oof, urgh, hmpf!” “I don’t know how many more bricks I can pass you!” “How heavy!” “OW!”
“Let’s be ‘avin yaaaaaaaa!” “CELTS COMING!” “Who are ya?” “Attack!” “Incoming!”
I honestly don’t know where they get it from! Well done 4H now to transfer those actions and words into writing! You’ve got this, folks!

In English on Friday we recapped our key text and spoke about the characters in the story. Then we had fun learning about how to ask questions and used our questions to ask Vlad the flea and Boxton the rat! #LovePlover
In English, children recapped the beginning and middle of our key text before acting out and retelling the end. We used our story map to help. We can’t wait to write about it next week! #LovePlover
We recapped our beginning videos. Then reread the whole story. Before making a story map and acting the middle part of the story! #LovePlover
In our first English lesson we… completed a jigsaw of the front cover, made predictions about what the story might be about, read the whole book, made a story map and then acted out the beginning to Vlad and The Great Fire of London! #LovePlover
