World War 2

 We have been busy in 4th and 5th class learning about World War 2. The children themselves asked if we could immerse ourselves in World War 2 for the whole school day and explore the topic in many subjects. We read diary entries from the war, explored 'The Blitz' in free writing and Visual Arts, listened to music from the 1940s, used photographs from the war to prompt discussion and oral lanaguage and explored the topic in History. The children worked on projects based on different WW2 topics e.g. Anne Frank; How the war started?; The lives of kids during the war; Famous leaders during the war; Secret codes and battles etc. Below are some images from a few of the wonderful projects.
