Final rollercoaster models

After several weeks of researching, designing and trialing, we finally completed our rollercoaster models to take to Knighton town council!

Measuring Brynny

We measured Brynny in November to to see if the space would be suitable for us to build our rollercoaster on. We used trundle wheels to measure the area and perimeter.

Human Rights Day - Article 2

Article 2 – All children have these rights, no matter who they are or what they look like.

We listened to the story ‘It’s ok to be different’, and discussed why it is ok to be different. Here are some of the children’s contributions;

“We have different colour skin and that is ok.”

“You might want to speak in a different language.”

“It doesn’t matter where you live. You can live in different places and still be friends.”

“My mummy has curly hair and I don’t, and that is ok.”

“Teasing is not kind, because children will feel sad if you tease them.”

“My mummy is different to me because she has dark hair and I have light hair.”

After our discussion, we played a game of ‘switch places if you ……’ where the children swapped places with another child if they answered yes to the question/statement.

Our Hand Puppets/Ein Pypedau Llaw

We are SO proud of our hand puppets. The pupils have loved designing and making their hand puppets for Geppetto. We have used so many skills including cutting, sticking, drawing and listening. Arbennig pawb!

Pyjama Drama

Louise from Pyjama Drama visited us on Friday to enhance our drama skills using the story of Pinocchio. We used our superb imaginations to retell a different ending to the Pinocchio story. We had lots of fun and used our team building skills well. Da iawn pawb!

Pyjama Drama

Thank you to Louise from Pyjama Drama. We had a fantastic time using our drama skills to pretend Pinocchio went on a plane to Spain where he had a fantastic camping holiday, swam in the sea, went to a park and had a train ride. We role-played that we were Pinocchio in the ending of our story.

Pyjama Drama

Today, we were joined by Louise from Pyjama Drama. Louise worked with us to create a story about a family visiting a theme park and going on a rollercoaster ride. Here are some pictures of us acting out our story in our groups.
