29 Nov Year 6
This week in Year 6, we have been drawing characters and settings for our character descriptions that we are going to write in our English lessons. Our descriptions are modelled on the members of Fagin’s pickpocket gang from Oliver Twist. We also spent some time acting in role to prepare us to write. In History, our learning about the monarchy has moved onto the Victorian period and we have been looking at picture sources from that period. We have also found out about the terrible lives of children that had to work in the mines and the cotton mills during that period.
