This week year 2 kick-started their new topic with a trip to Australia in 1770. We travelled by boat and imagined we were convicts who had been caught and sentenced to 7 years in prison in Australia. We found out that many people couldn't afford to get home and so made a life there.
In writing we are looking at letters from unhappy crayons, inspired by The Day the Crayons Quit. we began by playing the emotions game. Our teacher gave us a word (for example, annoyed or excited) and we had to show that emotion on our face.
We then imagined how each crayon was feeling in their letter using the feelings words from earlier in the lesson. We roleplayed as the crayons and our partners interviewed us.
In our World Views lesson we explored how different colours depict different moods. We discussed how different colours make us feel different things. We were given feeling words and we mixed paint to create a colour that reminded us of that feeling.
