International Week

We had fun learning about France and Alaska this week. First we learned to sing 'Head, shoulders, knees and toes' in French. The children in year 6 came and taught us, then we sang to the rest of the school in assembly on Friday. We looked at pictures by the artists Monet and Seurat and then we copied them using paints and pastels. Some of our pictures are on the hall display. We made our own French flags and We answered the register in French this week. Now we are looking forward to learning more after Christmas. Later in the week we found out about the Inuit people in Alaska and how they hunt and live in their cold country. We listened to stories, made sleds and finger masks and we learned a song called 'Okki Tokki Unga' about a boy who goes fishing in a kayak.
