We got a letter today from Sir Nick the Mighty he told us that his dragon had escaped from his tower. He asked us if we had seen him. The mystery was solved, it was a dragon that had been in our classroom. That explains the burning smell, the scales and glitter and the sound of fire and roaring. We created posters to put up in the village to warm people that there is a dragon on the loose. We used adjectives and some of us used similes to describe the dragons personality and appearance.

We also started our new Science topic all about materials. We thought about the objects around us that we use everyday and what materials they are made out of. We put the names of the materials on the thinking mat and hunted around the classroom for things that were made from that material. We then though of words to describe the materials- the properties of the materials. Look at the thinking mat when we had looked at each of  the materials in turn. 

We have made a display to show what we have learnt- come and have a look at it in our classroom. It shows our thinking about how funny it would be if things very made out of different materials.

Wouldn't it be funny if a car was made from glass.

Wouldn't it be funny if a door was made from rubber.
