Making sure PEACE information is up to date!

P.E.A.C.E. employees have been hard at work this week making sure everything is up to date for their trip to Alaska. Passports had to be checked, bags had to be packed and most importantly we had to update our information about polar bears and their habitat.

We are all very excited to be going on this trip!

We are the Squirrels!

Our new class name is Squirrel so we thought we better find out a bit about them. We learnt lots of squirrel facts.

P.E.A.C.E

This morning the employees at P.E.A.C.E received a very distressed phone call ...

A family that are currently enjoying one of our adventures in Alaska have been out whale watching. They have seen a very disturbing sight. There are two polar bears drifting on a small iceberg in the middle of the ocean. They left a message on our answer phone and an email asking 'Can we help them?'

We thought about what it would be like to be the polar bears.

We also managed to interview a couple of polar bears!

All the employees decided that we must try to help them.
But ...

I'm not sure that we can. I know that stranded polar bears may starve or drown, but I'm not sure what we can do. They are very dangerous animals after all. We can't go to close to them as they will be hungry and could hurt us. What on Earth will we do?

Ordering numbers

We have been really good at ordering numbers today. Look!

We used numicon and played some card games and some computer games.

Have fun!

We are Badger Class!

As we are now called Badgers, we thought we had better learn a bit more about this wonderful creature. We did a quiz and some paintings too, before writing a fact sheet.

We read about some other animals on penpals.co.uk today. We thought we should reply.

Here are some of our replies. What do you think?

Have you ever interviewed a badger? We did today! We learned all sorts of things from them. Would you like to ask a badger a question?

More badgers coming soon!

Our new ipads!

Today we did some research on our new ipads about the badger. It was VERY exciting! We found facts and had written some down within ten minutes!

We learned how to use our fingers to make the screen bigger and smaller.

We could explain how we found our information, by going on the internet and

the class blog.

We then looked on the class workbook to help us learn lots of things about badgers.

Google is really easy to use on the ipad too!

Then we played some games!

We liked angry birds and the money game best so far. Miss BB says there are lots more to come!

Anyone for tennis?

We learned lots of new skills in tennis today. Look at what we did!
