Hamlet




Today we started learning about Hamlet.


We read act one, scene one from the adult version first and then read the first few pages of the children's book. Then I took notes about the guards seeing a ghost and deciding to tell Hamlet.

Fire and Poems

This morning, we looked at weather poetry.

This is my poem,

The sky suddenly goes dark.
Fast, loud, rain pours down.
It's cold It's windy.
Bright flashes light up the sky.
I see lightening.


Lighting the fire with are new fire -starters. They work really well.

Today we began learning about Candlemas,Imbolc or Bridgit's day.


This is the beginning of Spring, the sun getting warmer and new life.


We made firelighters using egg cartons, saw-dust and wax.
