3D shape

The children have been exploring shapes today. They have been finding out which shapes roll, stack and do both. They have explored which shapes are the best to build with. They have used the clixi to make 3D shapes. Earlier a group of children built a really tall tower using duplo, they had to ask me to help because it got so tall!

Role play

The children wanted to have a Class 1 shop so they could spend their money. They then decided they also wanted a cafe. The children busied themselves making trolleys, tags and credit cards, some even made some magazines to sell. I am sure they will continue to think of and make things that they want in their Clas s1 shop.

Following the success of the pizza, pasta and salad bar special lunch, the school kitchen will be serving this menu again next Friday 24th March.

As last time, the kitchen will provide an alternative for those children who do not like pizza or pasta.

Maths – money

Thank you very much for all the donations of 1 pences and 2 pences. Today the children were using them to play shops. They took it in turns to be the shop keeper and customers. They had to work put how much money they would have left.

We will be continuing with money work over the week, concentrating on subtraction and some children will be recording their number sentences.

Medals Assembly 10.03.17

Today we introduced a new ‘award’ in our weekly medals assembly. One or two children from each class were nominated by their teacher to share a piece of work that they have produced this week which really stood out. The work shared included science work on solids, liquids and gases, narrative writing on Jack and the Beanstalk, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and setting descriptions and also Winston Churchill fact files. We are looking forward to seeing more children share their work over the weeks ahead.

Well done to Will who was also the recipient of this week’s Secret Teacher award and thank you to Mrs Hughes for being our ‘secret teacher!’

Cross Country 10.03.17

We had a fantastic cross country session tonight and 47 children, over a third of the school, took part. The lovely, mild weather saw many children having to remove layers as you can see in the photo which was completely unrehearsed and I just happened to run past as some of the Class 1 girls were taking a breather! Soon after, the top of the goal post was completely obscured with many more sweatshirts and jackets being discarded!

Mardi Gras day in Class 1

Next Tuesday ( 7th March), we will be having a Mardi Gras celebration day. The colours of Mardi Gra are Green, gold and purple, and we would like all the children to come to school wearing one, two or even all of those colours on that day.

On the day we will have a parade around school wearing our masks and playing our instruments, plus lots more Carnival fun.

Thank you for completing the musical instrument homework, it has inspired the children to form bands, talk about how they made them and have a go playing each others. With all the junk modelling that has been donated many more will be made in class.
