Beatlemania at Windhill21

Today, Year 3 class celebrated the start of World History Week. The children were welcomed in by the well renowned band, The Beatles; classic English playwright William Shakespeare and the infamous pirate Anne Bonny. 

The children impressed us all with some amazing costumes and in depth speeches that they presented to the class. From Albert Einstein, Freddie Mercury and Boudicca we were in awe of all your hard work!

Our year group theme this week is the history of music. We delved into this with enthusiasm to explore

how music has changed over the years. We learnt a range of musical genres such as: Renaissance, Modern, Soul and of course Pop! We used our knowledge of music to identify what musical instruments we could hear in these genres, we even discussed our favourites types of music and why.

With the appearance of The Beatles today, it was clear we had to learn one of their well known and much loved songs, The Yellow Submarine. We enjoyed an end of the day sing song out in the sunshine and treated our parents to our best Beatles impressions. 

                       

                    Some children even taught to teach a 300 year old pirate how to take a selfie!
                                                  Well done Year 3, keep up the great work.

Music pun: What's an avocado's favourite music? Guac 'N' roll.
