Sign Language- This is Me!
Although Covid-19 has stopped us from being able to sing in school, we have still been able to enjoy music in other ways. We decided to learn a whole song in sign language and perform it to the rest of the school on our brand-new outdoor stage!

- Write a fact file on a place and person

Context
Our first topic was focussed around wellbeing and was called 'This is Me'. Within this time we focussed on improving our self-confidence, self-esteem and mental health. We completed many different activities based around the film inside out!
This included:
- Designing and describing our own inside out characters
- Creating an inside out control panel
- Practising Mindfulness
- Creating our own 'calming down kit'
Globetrotting
Our first topic this term is Globetrotting. We will be reading the story 'The Fantastic Flying Journey' which involves a family of young children travelling the world in a hot air balloon. We will focus on each continent that they travel to immersing ourselves in the different cultures, religions and ways of life.
