Welcome back Stiperstones.

Welcome back Stiperstones to the Spring term, I hope you all had a restful Christmas break. We have an exciting term ahead of us, studying the Pharaohs and Ancient Egypt, exploring forces in science, and developing our mathematical knowledge further.

Our English focus for the next four weeks, is a descriptive narrative based on a short video clip about an Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh.


Lesson One:

To describe the appearance of the Egyptian Pharaoh and inference her thoughts and feelings.

The children are to create a mind map of different adjectives to describe the Pharaoh’s appearance and what she may be thinking or feeling at the beginning of the video clip. The children may then begin to write detailed sentences, using the adjectives from their mind map, to describe the Pharaoh and her feelings.

Maths lesson:
