Bonfire Night
In this unit the children will develop a chronological understanding of the timeline of fireworks, bonfire night and Guy Fawkes. They will explore the history of fireworks. By the end of the topic the children will have a good understanding of China and what it is like compared to England. The children will develop an understanding of colour and how to mix colours. They will be able to use descriptive language to create labels for firework boxes. To start the topic the children will role play a bonfire night experience in school, toasting marshmallows and drinking hot chocolate whilst watching some beautiful firework displays. The children cannot wait to start this topic!
