Bed and Breakfast for Rudolph!

You may have heard that Rudolph will be coming to stay at school over the next 2 weeks. Father Christmas wrote us a letter saying that he is so busy preparing presents that he needs some help with the reindeers. Class 1 have the very important job of looking after Rudolph. We have a stable in the classroom for him. The children are very excited about Rudolph's arrival. They have been preparing by planning signs and drawing maps to help Rudolph find the juiciest grass to eat in the daytime whilst we are in class. Each day his stable will be prepared for him to rest in over night with food, water and a blanket!

Instructions

Year 1 are looking at instruction writing for the next 2 weeks. Today they read the story 'Pass the jam Jim' and had a go at making their own jam sandwiches using verbal instructions. We, of course, had to taste test the sandwiches after making! As you can see we enjoyed them very much and thought they were yummy!

Marvellous Me...

Today the children brought their 'Marvellous Me' boxes into school. Many thanks to parents who helped to put the boxes together. They were absolutely beautiful and clearly lots of effort and time had been put into them. The children were all very proud of their boxes and enjoyed sharing the contents with the rest of the class. The activity was particularly useful in encouraging the children's speaking and listening skills in group situations.

Vehicles

Today Year 1 began making their vehicles. They have spent lots of time deciding on their vehicle and creating a design. The main criteria for their design was that it will transport Crispin from one side of the classroom to the other.

There are a huge variety of different vehicles being made including a aeroplane, hot air balloon, hovercraft and a double decker bus.

FS2 will be making their vehicles tomorrow and into the beginning of next week.

Reminder: Non-uniform day tomorrow and cake sale.

Autumn Walk

 Today Class 1 went on an Autumn walk around the village. We were hunting for signs of Autumn. We got out our binoculars to look at the differences that were happening to the trees. 

 We collected different leaves of many colours.

We enjoyed our walk very much and had lots of 'finds' to take back to school with us.
