I'm a Titanic survivor!

On Monday 12th May Mr Thoburn's class are learning about Titanic.Our task was to get into pairs and choose one interviewer and one survivor of the Titanic. Then think of questions and answers to write an interview script. 

 

We role played as Titanic survivors.                                                                                                                                                                             The interviewer asked the survivor four questions and the survivor had to answer them with full emotion.Our class were asking some great questions . 

We watched a video where Titanic survivors were getting interviewed.

This is the first draft of the interview 

    

This is the neat copy of the interview script 

Everyone worked hard and produced some brilliant scripts.

Science - adaptations

In science we are understanding what plants and animals have adopted to suit their habitats. Mrs Brickwood brought her pet tortoise Holly into school. She is 18! Holly has a hard shell and her head is streamlined. Her shell is also thick and strong.

Some great work

Holly: 

She can crawl fast

walk at river side

On Monday 20th April 2014 I went on a walk at the river side for some fresh air, I had lots of fun! My Dad wanted me to jump off the wall into the (ice cold) water (that meaney!). On the walk I had a picnic with my Mam, Dad and my dog Patch. I raced my Mam, Dad and Patch up the hill, I also won! When I started walking to the car, I spotted a ferret in a bush (that was rusteling), I felt really, really, really guilty for leaving it.

Spiderwick (Y5)

Today in Spiderwick we read chapter two of 'The Seeing Stone'. Spiderwick is really fun.There is three children in the book Jared, Simon and Mallory. Jared and Simon are twins and their mam is called Helen.Our work today was to draw a goblin using evidence from the text. We were discussing how we could draw the goblin. Look at our goblins!

20th Century Britain! (The Titanic)

On Monday 28th April, Mr Thoburn's were  learning about the titanic. Firstly the class got off by discussing what the titanic was and who built it and who owned it and where it travelled. Mr Thoburn showed the class and explained a PowerPoint to show what was it inside and it cost of rooms in the titanic ship. The class seen what features of the titanic that they had in eg. The gym, Turkish bath. Mr Thoburn showed a diagram of the ship and showed what was inside it with labels 1st class smoking room and 2nd class smoking room. You may even get invited to go to have dinner with the captain!

Secondly the class were asked to make a poster about the titanic and include some interesting amazing facts! There job is to persuade them to go on the titanic.

This was an example from James  which was very impressive #brilliantoo and he hasn't even finished yet! He has included a big title which makes you read on and is very eye catching he has also included exclusive offers about the first class suite and third class he has included prices to inform them and a diagram to show what it was like.

This was an example from Owen which was an fantastic piece of work and has included an many amounts of features and eye catching facts.

gymnastics

                I went to gymnastics in the Easter holidays and I did bar and beam. Bar is where you swing and do flips. Beam is where you do handstands and cartwheels and jumps but you have got to be careful because if you fall off you can really hurt yourself.
