Last term we were studying

 SPACE 

We had lots of fun learning all about the solar system, the Sun , Moon and Earth. We particulary enjoyed learning about the distances and tried to measure out some relative sizes and distances on school grounds... the Sun was really far away!

We composed and performed our own space music! It was very... tuneful!

We choreographed our own space dances and performed cheerleading to War of the Worlds music, which linked to our literacy!

In Literarcy we wrote information booklets about stars, read and wrote about science fiction,  and examined older literacy with The War of the Worlds.... we even had our own alien invasion in school (spacecraft scorch marks on the playground, strange indelible writings, green goo hanging off classroom surfaces!).  We interviewed the police about it and had to write newspapers reports. It was all very exciting!

At the end of the term we all enjoyed a trip to the Leicester National Space Museum
