Spring Term

RE
 
We learnt about special people in Sikhism. We learnt about Guru Gobind Singh and acted out the festival day of Vaisakhi where Sikhs became part of the Khalsa. We learnt about how this affects everyday life as a Sikh and why Sikh's surnames are either Singh or Kaur.
English
 
Our new book this term is all about Greta Thunberg. We started off by writing questions we would like to ask Greta and did hot seating to get into character.
Spanish
 
We have been learning how to ask someone when their birthday is in Spanish. We went round the class to ask our classmates: 
¿Cuándo es tu cumpleaños?
 
Reading
 
For our new text this week we played pass the parcel to predict what it was going to be. We had clues such as slippers, emerald, brick, lion and Kansas. Can you guess what the text was?
