A Child's War 

Our topic this term will be ' A child's War. ' We will learn about what life was like for people living through the second World War. Below are some pupil voice voice questions, which we will explore throughout the topic. 

 

  • What are some war time recipes and were they included in the ration books?
  • Who were the famous leaders of each country during the war?
  • How did the war finally come to an end?
  • Were there any countries that were not involved?
  • How did people communicate?
  • Was there any famous artist during the war?
  • How long were children away from their families, and how long was the journey they had to make?
  • How were gas masked made?
  • Are there any similarities between World War 2 and the current war in Ukraine?
  • What were the most significant events during the war and how have they had an impact on us in the modern era?
  • Did they have the same technology that we have today?

Homework will be placed on Google Classroom every Friday. Please submit all homework by the following Wednesday.

Each week, children will be asked to complete either a piece of numeracy or literacy based homework which will alternate from week to week.

Below is  a termly homework grid  based on our topic. Children may do as many homework tasks as they like over the course of the term.  

 

Weekly spellings will also be taught in class and given to the children to practice at home. 

The children will be rewarded for completing their homework by receiving dojos!
