Roundhouse work
Despite the cold weather seriously affecting our work on Wednesday, Years 3 and 4 have successfully:
demolished an old structure and old clay oven
constructed two new wattle fences
built and installed a new door for the roundhouse
created a Swedish logpile
mixed clay, dried grass and water for a daub to make a new clay oven
smashed up old bricks into powder to add to the daub
constructed a willow dome over which the daub will be applied
We hope that when completed, we can use the clay oven to bake bread and cook our own pizzas!
Well done to all the children, thanks to parents who helped and to our friends from Cranborne!

Due to our roundhouse work next week, I have decided to cancel football club next Wednesday 8.2.12. From previous experience, it's too much changing in one day!

Roundhouse work
Children in Year 4 will be helping in the roundhouse area every day next week. They will need to bring a set warm outdoor clothes and wellies! We aim to make a new fence to replace one that has rotted away, a new door for the roundhouse and a new clay oven where we can bake bread and pizza!
The children will be working in small groups of 10 at a time under the guidance of our friends from Cranborne Ancient Technology Centre. Parents are welcome to come along and help, but please wrap up warm!

Homework 3rd February
Homework – 3rd February 2011
This week I would like you to research Ancient Greek Gods and Goddesses. As you know, there were many! But if you were an Ancient Greek God or Goddess, which would you be? Can you draw a picture of your favourite God or Goddess? Maybe you could do something inventive with ICT and paste your head and shoulders onto a statue of the God or Goddess of your choice. Remember to find out what they were the God or Goddess of, maybe you could choose the one that is most like you! Write down the name of your God or Goddess and why you have chosen them.
Don’t forget you have some spellings to learn for Monday, and next week I will be checking the 11 and 7 x tables on Wednesday.
Next week you will also need to bring in warm play clothes, wellingtons and waterproofs so that you can work on the roundhouse site. Please bring these in a bag and wear your uniform to school.
