In Primary 5 we have been marking Remembrance Day in a few different ways. Together, we read Michael Morpurgo's Poppy Field. This story follow one family over a number of generations and their lives in Flanders.
In the story we learn about Marie, receiving an early draft of John McCrae's famous poem 'In Flanders Fields'. Primary 5 completed some literacy activities based on the story and created their own poppy artwork. On 11th November, we had a two-minute silence in our classroom.
