Shackleton's journey

 Why not research other polar explorers ?

Have any women been to the poles ?

The Piano 

This term , we wrote narratives based on 'The Piano' video. This has inspired us to write descriptively, emotively and to use figurative language to engage the reader. We can't wait to share them when they are complete!

Feeling inspired?

Why not have a go at one of the following topic projects at home?

• Write an explanation of the Circulatory system
• Make a model Circulatory System
• Write a song about the Circulatory system
• Write a love poem
•  Write a love story
• Create a  guide to keeping the heart healthy
• Compare the human circulatory system with that of other animals
• Create a persuasive leaflet on quitting smoking in order to keep the heart healthy
