English: We have now finished writing our own versions of War of the Worlds. By the way, we made them into mini-books.

Visitor: We had a visit from the mini-beast man (a.k.a Ed). We held a milk snake, stroked a bearded dragon, watched enviously as Mrs Lawrence held the tarantula, and we held a giant African land snail.

D&T: We used Makey-Makey to make a piano out of random objects in the classroom – we even played the piano!

I can’t wait to see what this week brings!
