Week 4
Another brilliant day was had by Year 5s at St Pius school. The children experienced a technology day in which they designed and made a product from start to finish including, vacuum forming, baking millionaire shortbread, creating chocolates, and designing and making the products box and packaging. The children also studied nutrition and found out that the cookies they made although tasty and absolutely fine to eat in small portions, they were a huge 800 calories each, so they realised they were a perfect treat after a hard days work.

Week 1
This week Class 4 continued there novel journey of The Indian in the Cupboard by Lynn Reid Banks. The children are absolutely loving the novel, this week we looked at writing that 'shows and not tells' a characters feelings and emotions in speech. The children spent time identifying how to correctly set out speech in writing by editing mistakes in work. Next week, the children will predict the next part of the story and use this knowledge to write their own exciting speeches for the next part of The Indian in the Cupboard story.
