Year 5 celebrate Black History Month

This past week Year 5 have taken the opportunity to celebrate Black History Month.

We started the week off making some masks for our festival celebration on Wednesday.

On Tuesday it was a chance for us to recreate the famous artist Jean Michael Basquiat's artwork, the children did such an amazing job of interpreting his work and making it their own.

Over the last couple of weeks we have been practicing a song by Martha and the Vandellas which we have also performed - see video below.

This is not the end of our learning about black history, we will be ensuring we deliver a diverse and inclusive curriculum throughout Year 5.

Black History Month Carnival Parade Day - 20.10.21

 

Wow - what a truly amazing day yesterday was here at Broadford. The children were dressed in such vibrant colours to represent our Carnival learning during Black History Month.

They continued to create masks and costume decorations in preparation for our parade conga line around the school.

Here are some photos from the fabulous event:

Here's to next year's celebrations - well done children!

Watching Holes in Year 6

We wanted to inform all parents that to round off our literacy unit based on the book 'Holes', we will be watching the Disney film in classes tomorrow morning. The children can't wait to see how the book is represented as a film and they definitely deserve a treat after working so hard this half term!

Marvellous Maya Workshop - Year 6

Year 6 had a wonderful morning today journeying around the Mayan city state of Palenque. They were taken back in time to learn all about the people, religion and culture of this ancient civilization and they considered what eventually led to its collapse.

"It was really fun because we got to learn about Mayan kings and how they lived!", Callie, Almond

"I thought it was great that we got to do lots of acting!", D'Shawn, Lime

They demonstrated outstanding reciprocity throughout and acted as brilliant role models, whilst also having lots of fun!

Great job, Year 6!
