Year 5 have been working incredibly hard in Writing, transforming themselves into museum curators. This week, they began their research into Ancient Egyptian artefacts. To help us become experts, we have been trialling Microsoft Learning Zone, where information is brought to life through interactive questions and activities that encourage children to read carefully, think and respond as they learn. 

Along the way, we have used Immersive Reader to support our reading and understanding of the information.

And the children have given it a big thumbs up too!

“All the information is relevant to what I want to know, and it’s fun!”

“It has questions in it, so you have to make sure you’ve read it or you can’t finish it!”

We can’t wait to see how all this fantastic research develops into our very own Egyptian museum exhibits!
