Book bag system

As some of you may have noticed this morning, to save a little time we have changed the system for the book bags.

Your child can now put their own book bag straight into their tray.

If there is a note in their home-link book for us to read, please put the book into the red basket next to the trays. If you have something for the office, for example dinner money or a form, please ensure that this is in a named envelope and put it in the green basket.

Any questions please don’t hesitate to ask.

Thank you!

Have a look at the photo gallery to see the children being presented with their prizes in assembly.

Class 5 Half-term homework

Following on from our work on biographical writing, you will be pleased to know that you will be writing your autobiography when we come back to school; we know how keen many of you were to talk about your own life!

Use what you learnt when writing a biography, to make your writing interesting, by including memorable events, as well as including general information about your family, hobbies, pets, places you have lived, etc. You can use the ideas below to help you make notes but you don’t need to write your autobiography in full, as we will be doing this in literacy lessons in school.

Date and place of birth
Home e.g. where you live now or have lived previously
Family
Education – you might want to include nursery or any other schools you might have attended
Pets
Hobbies/interests
Main achievements
Memorable incidents or events
Hopes and ambitions – what you would like to do in the future

Class 4 Half Term Homework

Half Term Homework – Due in Friday 5^th June 2015

The first week back after half term is Healthy Eating Week. With this in mind, I would like you to do some homework linked to this.

You can choose to do one of the options from the list below (you only have to do one but you are welcome to do more if you wish)!

Make sure you bring your homework into school by Friday 5^th June as we may present our homework to one another.

Cookery

Design a healthy meal and cook it with help from your grown ups. Remember to stay safe in the kitchen. Make a menu for your guests and serve their food to them at the table. You can bring the menu you have made into school. Don’t forget to wash up afterwards!

Music/dance

Write and perform a rap about healthy eating. You could even think of some dance moves to go with it!

Writing

Write a food diary over one week. Remember to record everything you eat and drink!

ICT

Make a short presentation about your favourite healthy foods.

Question

Should junk foods be banned for all children? You could write your answer in sentences or draw it in a cartoon.

Measures and making beanstalks

Yesterday Class 1 went to the woods again, this time to collect sticks and use them to talk about measures (length). They were set the following tasks: To find the longest stick they could find and see where it measured up to on themselves. Then they collected more sticks and ordered them from longest to shortest. Some children were given extra challenges to find a stick as long as their arm, 2 sticks the same length and a stick that was 20cm. They all worked really well together.

Today we used the sticks to make them look like beanstalks using a range of materials. The children all made a fantastic effort.

Jack and the Beanstalk

Today Class 1 went to the woods and listened to the story ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’. They then worked with a partner to mime one scene from the story for the other children to guess the scene. They all worked really well and thought carefully about using good body language and facial expressions.
