Project Work
As part of the '5 a Day' tasks, children will be asked to spend some time on their project.
The project will run for 2 weeks. Please contact me via Class Dojo if you have any questions.
Project 1 -
This project is based on our current topic 'Wired for Sound' which has an electricity and sound focus. The children all produced their own research and created a 'mind map'. I have photocopied their mind maps and put them in the home learning packs.
We watched this video of Jacqueline Auriol, who was the first European female to break the sound barrier.

Please then write a biography for Jacqueline Auriol. Feel free to add more facts to your mind map and do some more research!
Write the biography in your purple English book.
Remember we have already written a class biography on Thomas Edison! I will upload it so that you can look at it if you need some help.
Features it needs to include:
- A title.
- Sub-headings.
- Facts about the person's life (not opinion).
- It needs to be written in third person.
- The key events in Jacqueline Auriol's life.
Challenge: can you write a diary entry from the point of Jacqueline Auriol? (Based on the video above).
Project 2
Create a sound wave picture! A few weeks ago, we created some fantastic sound wave pictures based on 'Hall of Fame' by The Script. I was so impressed with them!
As part of your project, please choose a song and create a sound wave picture based on it. Use any materials that you have available (felt tips, crayons, pastels...)
Then upload a picture of it on your Class Dojo portfolio so I can see it!
The artist we were influenced by is called Tim Wakefield.
Project 3
Create your own word search using key words from our Science topic on sound and electricity.
Project 4 - Easter Themed. You can choose which order you complete the activities in.
