The children then compared the two sets of lyrics and discussed the message the lyrics were trying to get across to them. We then had a class discussion on which one we preferred and why? Most of the class prefered the Big Yellow Taxi over What A Wonderful World since it was a more upbeat and catchy song. ![](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/images/Collage_2024-11-27_23_11_51.jpg) [Year 6](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/tag/year-6) [English](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/tag/english) [Music](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/tag/music) [![](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/imagecache/100x100c/news/Screenshot_2024-11-27_13.49.29.png)](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2024-11-26-nursery-maths-investigating-big-and-small) Previous ### [Nursery - Maths - Investigating Big And Small ](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2024-11-26-nursery-maths-investigating-big-and-small) [![](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/imagecache/100x100c/news/d8db722c-b35b-435a-8ce4-20373091df7a.jpg)](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2024-11-28-year-5-science-recap-and-recall-activity) Next ### [Year 5 Science Recap and Recall Activity](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2024-11-28-year-5-science-recap-and-recall-activity) ### Academy Life - [News](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/events) - [Clubs](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/basc) - [School Council](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Charities and Fundrasing](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/charities-and-fundraising) - ![School Games Gold](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/Gold_Logo_25-26(1).png) - ![Healthy school](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/healthy_school.png) - ![Picture News](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/6_Years_of_Picture_News.png) - ![AP smilestar](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/Screenshot_2026-07-27_10.26.27.png) ##### Location St James Crescent Darwen Lancashire BB3 0EY ##### Contact Us 01254 703260 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/Darwenstjames) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/darwenstjames/) © Copyright 2021–2026 Darwen St James’ C of E Primary Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
