Highlights:
In English we have started our letter writing to Santa! The children have been thinking of lots of questions to ask the Big Man so that they can practise using question marks. One of our favourite questions was ‘Do the elves behave at the North Pole?’ In maths we have finished our shape unit and will be completing some festive activities next week. In RW we looked at various Christmas items using our senses and discussed how we celebrate Christmas. This week we started our design and technology work, the children were very excited after reading the design brief to find out they were going to be making a toy biplane just like the one that Any Johnson flew. We were very lucky on Tuesday afternoon to look at some real model planes. Thank you to Gabriel’s grandad (Class 1) for bringing these in and sharing with us.
WOW – we are so proud of you all for an amazing Christmas performance. A huge well done!
