Frozen Kingdom - Autumn 1

Project Homework

Take a look at some of the fantastic homework about our topic.  Everyone showed their amazing knowledge in such different and creative ways.  There were also some excellent PowerPoints from Antony, Fatima, Massimo, Richa and Ryan.  Great work everyone - well done!

Our Learning

We have enjoyed our Frozen Kingdom topic, learning about the Arctic and Antarctic, finding out where polar bears and penguins live and discovering more about the impact of climate change on these areas.  We wrote Shackleton's diary and were able to learn a little of what it must have been like to battle through the extreme weather conditions.  As part of History, we learnt about the sinking of the Titanic yet we managed to conquer the iceberg of long division in Maths!

Finally, we discovered that bread was a common food eaten on the Titanic, regardless of which class your cabin was in, so we designed and made our own bread roll, adding our choice of ingredients such as cheese, garlic, olives, raisins, chilli flakes or rosemary.  Take a look at some of our photos - it was delicious!

WOW!

We started our topic off by boarding 'The Titanic'!  Some of us were lucky enough to have 1st Class tickets, though 2nd and 3rd Class tickets still had good rooms on board.  We learnt a little about when the ship was built and its' journey.  We also looked at the menus they had on board and tasted different types of bread and soup, similar to what they would have had in 1912!
