CELL DANCE IMPELO!

We welcomed Impelo dance group in to school today. We watched a dance about cells in our body and then took part in a dance workshop that helped us understand more about how the different cells in the body work!

This week we have transformed our old sock in to animal puppets. We used our Welsh language skills to carefully follow the instructions written in Welsh to make our puppets.

We are going to use these puppets to make an animation using iMotion.

Wild Save- we got the job!

Now that we have a rescue centre and a plenty of case studies to prove we are up to the job, we have worked to put together a quote for the job. The quote included; vehicle hire, staff, medication, camping equipment etc. The children worked hard to use the information available to them and used a spreadsheet on Hwb to input their costs and calculate a total using a formula.

We then decided we were ready to email Mr Thomas to give him the information he wanted. We practised using formal language and looked at the features of emails, and information and persuasion texts. We also attached our case studies and quotes to the emails.

Good news…we got the job!!

Next we had to consider how we would get ready for the job. The children organised them into the different teams Wild Save would have and thought about some of the responsibilities.

Office staff- messages to the transport team & CCTV to keep the animals safe

Drivers- transporting staff, vehicles, cargo (equipment) & animals

Rescue team- track the animals, find them and take them to the rescue centre

Vets- checking and treating the animals, equipment & medication

Receptionist- booking the animals into the centre

Support team- setting up camp and organising food & drink for staff & animals

In amongst these discussions the idea of dangers arose; what could go wrong and what we could do about it. It was agreed that risk assessments would need to be completed before we started the job to make sure it would be safe.
