This term Leopard’s class have been learning about Space. We have based our topic around a short film called Baboon on the Moon. We have used this stimulus to write instructions and explanations, including researching recipes Baboon would like (banana based!) and cooking them.
The children have found out about the history of the first moon landing and began some map work both to locate planets in the solar system and the continent of Africa and countries within it, such as Mali where Baboon comes from. In Art, linked to learning about famous people such as Neil Armstrong, the children have learnt to print in the style of Andy Warhol.
Next term our topic will be Punch and Judy. I hope the children are looking forward to learning about the history of the British Seaside, as well as making their own Punch and Judy Puppets to put on a show for Cubs! Have a wonderful Easter.
