Mrs Baker and I are really enjoying reading them and finding out more about the talents and hobbies of Maple Class. What a talented bunch you are! In our topic lesson, we looked at old sepia photographs of Whitby which were more than one hundred years old. The children found it fascinating to see which parts of Whitby they recognise and which are completely different. The children used colour pencil shades to immitate the sepia style producing some impressive art showing 'old Whitby'. We were particularly impressed with Preston's drawing of Whitby Abbey which has earned him our 'Star of the Week' this week. Congratulations Preston!
