Class Assembly!!!!
Here is the script for our class assembly. Please try learning the words at home.
- Miley - Welcome to Team Rees-Boughton’s class assembly!
- Gracie - In topic this Miss Rees-Boughton has been teaching us all about plants and insects!
- Willow - This harvest-time we need to be thankful for plants. While they may sometimes seem rather dull and boring so much in our world depends upon the use of plants.
- Morgan-At harvest we give thanks for the plants we eat, not only cabbages but grains of wheat that are made into flour and baked into bread.
- Viktorija - So much comes from plants! Even the air we breathe! (Blow some air into the balloon).
- Dahlia - Plants provide the oxygen that our lungs and bodies need.
- Ryan - Without plants, how would we build homes and schools?
- David - Trees provide the timber (sing timber) that we need for shelter and furniture. And wood is used to make many of the tools that are used.
- Sienna - When it’s cold, plants provide us with warmth. Wood is used in the manufacture of matches and for fuel.
- Megan - Coal and gas, found deep below the ground, come from plants that lived some 350 million years ago!
- Lucy - The petrol and oil used in cars and lorries also come from plant material. And bio-diesel is made from the crushed seeds of crops grown today.
- Remi - When it comes to getting around, other plants are important. Natural rubber is used for some parts of cars.
- George - And if you can’t afford a car you’ll maybe need some wellington boots!
- Lily - Clothes come from the world of plants! T-shirts and jeans are made from cotton. It’s a white fibre that grows around the seed of the cotton plant.
- Luci - Our health also depends upon plant life. Many medicines were first extracted from flowers, leaves and roots.
- Scarlett W - Aspirin, for example, comes from a substance found in the bark of willow trees.
- Henry - Plants add fragrance to our world, and are used in some shampoos and shower gels. Our world would be very smelly without plants!
- All – ewwww!
- Beth - Learning would also be very dull. Imagine a school without books! Without trees there would be no wood to pulp into paper – and no pencils either!
- Kamsavy - At harvest we celebrate the rich resources of the earth and consider how to use them wisely.
- Petra - In our topic lessons we have been planting cress seeds.
- Honey - We can’t wait to give them hair-cuts and eat them in our sandwiches!
- Amelia - We have set up an experiment to find out what plants need to live and grow.
- Song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUBIQ1fTRzI
- Zofia - Plants need water, air, sunlight and lots of room to live healthy lives!
- Oscar - Otherwise they look like this …. And that’s not very tasty!
- Scarlett W - Please join us in a song about planting seeds.
- Jacey - We will sing the first line and then you can sing the next line back to us!
- Song Find a little seed (children to act out planting a seed)
- Scarlett B - Wow! Plants are way more exciting and useful than I thought they were!
- Ralphy - Thank you for listening to our class assembly.
- Amelia - Please think about what you are a grateful for this harvest!
