Starting Our Space Topic

On Tuesday 2nd May 2017 Year 3/4 started there Space topic. We are really enjoying our new topic, our first piece of work was a KWL chart there were three sections, there was what I know, what I want to find out and what I learnt. We really like our new topic because it’s very fun and we hope to learn alot more. Our second piece  of work was naming and putting all the planets in order. I wonder what our third piece of work will be?

Who ever wanted to be a Super Ambassador put their name down and there was a vote open for all children and the vote ended Monday 20th at lunch time. The winners were announced at assembly.  The winners were Cari Grant and Cai Van Lil. On Wednesday 22nd Cai and Cari went down to Llanymynech to learn about being a Super Ambassador . I have heard that they had a brilliant time and thoroughly  enjoyed it. Cari and Cai’s job is to tell people about children’s rights and do special missions, so look out!
