The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse
We started the term by reading the fantastic book 'The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse' by Charlie Mackesy. We used this text to explore any emotions we had about our return to school and then recreated some of the iconic pictures in the book using water colours and wrote our favourite inspirational quotes alongside them.
Batley In The Blitz
Year 6 have enjoyed learning about WW2 and especially about how Batley was affected by the war. We researched names on the cenotaph and learned about Batley's soldiers, as well as sharing any stories about our own friends and family who have served in the forces. We learned how Batley was the destination for many evacuees from London and about Batley's own night of terror on 12th December 1940, when Batley was bombed by the Luftwaffe.
Persuasive Writing
As part of our English work, we wrote persuasive texts of our choice linked to World War Two. Have a read of some of our texts below. Would they persuade you?
Remembrance
As a finale to our topic we crafted poppies out of paper and made a wreath to place at the cenotaph on Armistice Day
