This half term of learning about WWII, through the lens of the characters in Letters from the Lighthouse, comes to a close.
The children were engulfed by the fact that this was once a reality for children their age and this week, they had the opportunity to write a diary entry from the perspective of a child being sent away to 'safety' during the war.
Our Year 5's used literary skills such as first person, adverbials of time and place and were intentional that the detail and tone of their writing matched both the diary style and their character.
Enjoy videos of a few of the children reading their diary entry aloud.
