International Week: Poland

Dzień dobry!


During International Week we learned about the fascinating country Poland. The children enjoyed a range of activities to help them explore history, geography, art and food technology with a Polish theme. They are beginning to be able to talk about and compare their own lives and with those of others. 



We are very grateful to Marta, Julian's Mum, who came to teach us some Polish words and phrases. The children are still keen to answer the register in their best Polish. Dziękuję Ci Marta! 😁

We have been looking at maps, globes, atlases and using Google Earth to look at where different countries are.

Working together to do a jigsaw puzzle of a world map

Pretending to eat "the different foods from the other countries"  

Tackling a HUGE jigsaw of a map of the world

Working together to play Around the World

Exploring the countries in Europe

"Not too tricky for me!"

Finally completed except for the dreaded one piece missing! Feeling proud. 


This geographer knew this was Russia "because it's the biggest piece of land." Wowsers!

We learnt about the different colours in a satellite photo of the earth.
The children used different resources to make a map of Poland. 

Great teamwork Year Ones!

We saw that there's a river in Warsaw and made some boats. 




We made models of famous buildings in Warsaw. 




This engineer has made a model of Siekierkowski bridge in Warsaw!



Well done Year Ones, we had a brilliant week which was full of new learning!
