Pyramus and Thisbe.

The Year 6 groups have been creating storyboards and acting out scenes from the story of Pyramus and Thisbe. This fits in with their work on A Midsummer Night's Dream as it is the play Bottom and the workers act out for the prince. We used scenes and props in the school grounds to bring the story to life.

Homegrown crumble

Year Five have been making fruit crumbles with fruit picked in the school grounds. We found apples, plums, blackcurrants, redcurrants and elderberries. We realised that we had black, red and white ingredients (Snow White's colours) and used similes to describe them; 'elderberries as black as the night sky!'
