Pupil Voice.....Planning for Spring Term!
As part of our Spring Term topic ‘Our Wonderful World’, we read the story ‘Emma Jane’s Aeroplane’.
We freeze framed halfway through the story and in our ‘Mantle of the Expert’ groups we predicted and acted out alternative endings to the story.
In our ‘Mantle of the Expert’ groups we also thought about what we would like to learn this term.
We produced mind maps showing our ideas.
