Spring 2 - Jetting Down Under

We came back from the holiday to find an important message from Ubercorn. We had a briefing from him to explain that we would have an important delivery and our first mission was to figure out where the delivery had come from.

Mrs Norwood brought down a sealed box, it had an airmail stamp on and inside was: a jar of sand, a beach towel, a boomerang, a cuddly koala toy, a flag and a snorkel. We guessed that the location was Australia! Our mission from Ubercorn was to explore and learn about 5 different places in Australia, to earn our stamps for our mission logs, and to become ‘Official Go Jetters’!

We looked at non-chronological reports on different animals and spotted a range of features such as headings, sub-headings, expanded noun phrases and sentence openers. We then created our own non-chronological reports about Australian animals.

We learnt all about aboriginal art when we explored the Outback. We researched the different techniques that they use, practised them and then made our final pieces based on Australian animals.
