\u201c<\/span>Last year we did a whole school week where we transformed our library, we did a fairytale one and each class took a fairy-tale, made artefacts, writing, we displayed it to transform the library because it was looking a bit of a sorry state. We wanted to refresh it so this year we've decided to do the 'Lost Words' week and tie it in with nature. So what I did was I did the input that we had in Year 6 which is the roots of the tree that you've got there, so things like reading 'The Lost Words.' <\/span>Then on the trunk of the tree I put down what the Year 6 output was, so what work did they actually do? What things did they generate? ... <\/span>My little acorn over here is the cost. I've got some little frown faces. We did buy three books so it was shared one book between two classes which is a shame that's all we could afford but that cost us \u00a339 and it doesn't sound a lot but there isn't a lot of budget to go around for something like that.<\/span>\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u201cI was looking at inspirations in and out of the classroom, so what inspired me particularly in literacy and then anywhere where I felt inspiration has been passed off to other practitioners. So the heart is the classroom. This is inwards. There are a few that crossed straight through which is me thinking, well, there's been inspiration in but then I've gone and done something else with it afterwards so there's been an action to follow up. So the dash arrows, they're things that I've actively sought out either on the internet or by asking other people. The wavy lines are someone at school showing off their skills and I've thought, yes, I'm having that in my own!<\/span>\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>
