Fun and games at Allerton Grange
Allerton Grange was our destination on Monday morning for a PE lesson. After getting changed at school, we walked down to Allerton Grange where we were met by Miss Woodhead. She introduced us to our sports leaders (students from Y10) who told us what we were going to do. We spent an hour playing all sorts of different games and learning new skills. We were certainly ready for our lunch when we got back to school.
Using maps
Also, we used giant maps to find different places.
Using globes
We also used globes to find different places.
iPads
We used the atlas on the iPad to find places too.
Using atlases
We used atlases to find places.
Fantastic Fantasy!
Where do you start when you want to write a fantasy story? We started with reading some fantasy stories; then, we looked at lots of fantasy settings which we described (come and look at our fantasy tree to look at the vocabulary we came up with!). It was time to come up with our own fantasy settings. We used the iPads to help us. Not only that, we learnt how to email our work so that Mrs Weekes can print it out! Check us out….
