Amelia Earhart W/c 12/03/2021

ON THE MOVE
This week we have been reading about Amelia Earhart as part of our On the Move topic. The children were very interested with how hard she tried to learn how to fly and how her plane disappeared. We made our own planes using paper and lollypop sticks/pegs and even wore the helmet and goggles that she would have worn!

A LONG TIME AGO!
The Amelia Earhart book initiated interest in transport from the past. The penny farthing turned out to be a particular favourite. The children watched a video and were amazed at the height and how you had to get on and off! Look at these amazing observational drawings!
