In this theme we talked to Baby Joanna’s Mummy about how Baby Joanna sleeps and what little comforters she has to help her sleep. We measured and weighed Baby Joanna to see how much she had grown since her first visit.
This term our class will be looking at the topic 'People who help us'. Our class has identified that are lots of people that help us on a daily basis. These people include; Police Officers, Firefighters, Farmers, Teachers and loads more.
Today Mr Campbell asked the children in his year 3/4 class to become Police officers, but not just any police officers, they had to become detectives. The children had to crack codes and find where Mr Campbell had hidden his secret agents, their aim was to rescue them. The children had to work as a team to solve these problems.
Everyone cracked the codes and released the secret agents, Hooray!!
I wonder who will help us next?
