Volcanoes

As part of our IB unit on Natural Disasters we made these model volcanoes that actually erupted!

Co-operation

We made this colourful yarn web by co-operating with each other. It was a lot of fun!

Read some of our excellent writing.

Year Six have been developing their creative writing skills. Here are some extracts from their very exciting writing.

"I swallowed as much courage as I could and crossed it. When I got to the end of the bridge I saw a little house. The door was very colourful. I took a deep breath and went in. I saw a strange handle and I pulled it. Then a mysterious gate magically opened!" JR

"I felt like I was in a volcano! I saw a little hut. The hut had stained glass windows and I could hear music playing and water splashing. The house had a tower, it was where the man was reading Releeshan. Then I took all the fear I had inside me and I went inside. I looked up and saw a light - it looked like a spider was in it!" JE

"My courage was curling up in me. I did not know what to do. Then I pulled the lever with a clunk and a rusty squeak. I screamed as loud as I could and the gate opened. I heard someone talk then all of a sudden I heard something else. It sounded like a ship! I stepped forward. I was in a garden and I saw something that looked like a bug or maybe an eye!" CM

"So I decided to follow the path leading down. Suddenly cliffs were surrounding me so I went up with two paths in front of me. I was afraid to go across the bridge because I did not know what would be lurking in the murky water. So I sucked up all my fear and went and opened the door." WR

"There was a big thing in front of me. When suddenly I pulled the lever it made a squeak. Then a gate opened and I was so scared I was shaking. I stepped through the gate. I saw a golden button. It was black too. Then I looked to my left, it was a gate, it opened with a loud bang to reveal stairs going down." RF

"Suddenly I found myself in this strange land. I looked around and I saw jagged rocks. I turned my back and that..im-im-imposter..he ran! I followed him and as I ran I heard the wind blowing in my ears. I could smell the salt from the sea water. I went across a bridge and into a mysterious hut. The door was locked!" MB

"The telescopes had different coloured stones on them. One had red, one had blue and another had purple. I smelled the salt water and it was horrible. The island looked like Hell to me!" JMcL

"I heard wind rushing by, it was a mysterious, magical place. I chased the man, but he put a lock on the doors so I couldn't get in! He was wandering around the house it was very strange. The sea was calm, the clouds were not moving, there was no one by me. I felt so lonely. I heard music around me and I wanted to go back. I saw a railing carrying me to a mysterious strange lake. When I came back down the ladder I saw yellow sand with green grass. The cliffs were sharp and I saw amazing rocks. The place was magnificent!" SW
