The story of Cindygrace Windy

This afternoon we were treated to a play called "Cindygrace Windy" performed by a group of children in Year 4. They had organised and planned this themselves during break and lunchtimes. Elle came to school with a bag full of props and costumes.

Here are some photos of the star performers and narrators.

What a fantastic show everyone, I thoroughly enjoyed it, what did everyone else think?

I look forward to part two, "The Married Couple Return"

FOR SALE

Here they are, the fantastic brochures made by the Year 4's.

I think my class could give any Estate Agent a run for their money!

Last week the children worked together and gave the work a star and a wish.

The children considered the layout of the page, the font style and size and the use of language. I am very pleased with the final pieces of work. Well done Year 4.

Alice

Well done Alice, we are really proud of your super work. Not only did you produce an excellent explanation of your invention but today in the edit and improve session, you made your work even better.

Alice's invention

This is how it works

Alice used her imagination and designed a very unusual and interesting machine. If you look closely you can see how it is powered.

We visited Wallace and Gromit's website  http://www.crackingideas.com and had a go at the Sprocket Rocket game. To play it click here

We are going to spend the rest of the week finding out about explanation texts and designing some more inventions.

It's going to be lots of fun.
