The Lighthouse Keeper’s Picnic

This week, the boys planned and wrote a recount of  ‘The Lighthouse Keeper’s Picnic’. The focus was on identifying the key aspects of the story. At the start of their story, the boys introduced the setting and characters. They then described the problem and finished their story with a solution.

During Maths lessons, the boys moved onto completing addition calculations and have begun to work on column addition.

For their Geography this week, the boys looked at a case study of a seaside town in Blackpool, they then created an information poster to outline the main features and attractions of the location. History saw the boys exploring different sources, they compared two images, one from the past and one from the present. They also analysed two postcards from the Victorian times. During Science lessons, they have continued their work on exercise and the impact it has on the body.

A real highlight of the week was our Open Classroom; the boys thoroughly enjoyed sharing their work and explaining what they have covered thus far this term. Thank you to all who were able to attend.

  1. I enjoyed learning about Blackpool the most. I went up Blackpool Tower in the Easter holidays, we took a lift to go to the top!

  2. I really enjoyed the maths we did this week and working out the answer. I also enjoyed learning about Blackpool but I found it difficult choosing what to draw on my poster. But i really enjoyed it.
