'What Makes Doncaster Great?'
Below you will find weekly tasks that will help meet our learning targets but just as importantly contribute to our final product: an information text detailing all that is great about our town Doncaster.
Below you will find weekly tasks that will help meet our learning targets but just as importantly contribute to our final product: an information text detailing all that is great about our town Doncaster.
Unlike in previous weeks, you will notice that there are fewer tasks to complete. However, the activities given now have greater instruction, include good models, require more thought and a greater level of effort. This requires you to draft and re-draft pieces of work, taking care and attention throughout so that the final piece is to a good, if not excellent standard. Indeed, we can see that some children have already produced outstanding work during immersion week and you will find some of these pieces in the 'beautiful work' page of the website. Please complete all the tasks given although the order in which you do them is completely up to yourself. As always, please send your work into your year groups email or share it using Google Suite which our children now have access to.

Our Case Study: The Great Outdoors
Our Case Study: The Great Outdoors
Our case study is all about, well... The Great Outdoors! From your favourite local park to gardens of magnificent historical homes to National Trust sites across the town! Doncaster has some beautiful nature reserves, trails and waterfalls. We will explore the history and changes of these places over time and discover some interesting secrets that these rural places so close to the old A1 have to offer. Robin Hood himself was said to hide in the area waiting for rich travelers to pass on the road!
