Another winters week looking at penguins and other polar regions.
Beginning the week by watching a quick information clip about penguins to begin our journey on making our very own non-fiction book about penguins.
We just have to share all the interesting thing we have learnt about penguins.
Especially as our penguin display has been seen by so many and complemented on by other children.
This week Jacqui
took the Friday whole school assembly on Geography in and around the school,
and when the Reception display was show all the older children spontaneously began to clap
and cheer for our amazing work!! Well done all of you who helped to
produce this wonderful display.
More wonderful things we got up to this week...
