What did the first castles look like?

This week in English we have been retelling the story of 'The Deep Dark Woods'.  The children wrote some great stories and used adjectives to add detail to their writing.  In Maths, we have been subtracting using numbers and counting back to help us.

In Science the children enjoyed investigating which materials would be best for fixing a torn umbrella and in Art they shaped paper to make a 3D drawing.  In History, we learnt about what the first motte and bailey castles were like and the children worked hard to create replicas of them.  In RE we learnt about how the Jewish festival of Sukkot is celebrated.
