Term 3: Beyond The Wardrobe Doors...
This term, Year 5 are venturing beyond the wardrobe doors into the land of Narnia! We will be reading 'The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe' by C. S. Lewis and using this text to inspire our creative writing. We will also be learning about mountains and volcanoes in Geography and using this knowledge to create mountain scenes in art through embellished wet felting.
Spectacular Start:
For our Spectacular Start this term, the children worked together to create lanterns in the style of the very well-known lamp-post in Narnia, and we had a go at cooking up our own batches of Turkish Delight, just for Edmund!
