Home learning 21st September

Home learning, year 4 – 21^st September 2012

This week I would like you to ensure that you have your evacuee costume ready for our trip on Tuesday.  We will be using the costume for this trip and for other drama activities through the term, including our class assembly (30^th November), so please keep hold of it!

Well done for all of the fantastic gas mask boxes last week.  We will be providing each child with a fabric gas mask to put into them for the trip, just incase!

As evacuees you will also need a label!  Please make a label showing your name and school so that the billeting officer knows where you have come from!

This week some of the children have also been looking at WW2 propaganda and how the government made evacuation look much more cheerful than it was.  I would like you to help the government with their campaign.  Using the photos on the back of the sheet, make a poster to persuade families to evacuate their children to the countryside!  Remember you need to make it sound like the best adventure ever!

Lastly, I have a PG certificate, children’s bbc production of “Johnny and the Bomb” on DVD.  The children are desperate to watch since I used a clip in Literacy last week.  Please could you sign and return the slip below if you have no objections to your child seeing the film.
