This week in year 6T we welcomed a special guest called Mr Roffey from the STEM project, he is a Polar Ambassador. He showed us how animals in the Arctic stay warm, they have a layer under their skin called blubber. Someone dressed up as a penguin to show us as an example!
He also showed us clothing that people wore to go to the Arctic to protect them from the extreme temperatures , and we chose a volunteer to wear some of the equipment.
It was really fun having a Polar Ambassador! In 2 weeks, he will come back again, so log in to find out more.
ADVENTURE STORIES
In Year 6 everybody was writing their adventure story. In Mrs Crowhurst’s group, we planned our stories using story maps, here are some of them:
Here are things you need to add into an adventure story:
1.Gentle, descriptive start

4. GOING SOMEWHERE NEW
5. Ordinary situations to danger
6. Objects
