We have worked hard to write our poems and get to the end. The children have been working on writing their own performance piece of poetry these last couple of weeks. Understanding that rhythm, rhyme, verbs, similes and onomatopoeic words play a large part in a good performance poem.

We might not get to the official write up but they have done a wonderful job in a short time producing some lovely poetry based on an erupting volcano.

Here they are giving each other that last helping hand and sharing their efforts with a friend.

On Monday morning, we all got invited to watch the end of year performance of the Wizard of Oz in the school hall which was absolutely amazing! We had 4 wonderful children in our class take part in the show and another who played her guitar too. We all agreed how fabulous they were and that we were very proud of the performance they gave. And that our budding actors had work so hard doing 4 amazing shows in 3 days! Well done you super stars!

Enjoy your treats.

We discussed individual liberty again in crew today, with the children able to tell me that it’s all about the freedom of speech and having the right to express themselves within the rule of law.

We then transferred this onto a small transition tasks where the children were able to write or draw something for their new teacher which expressed something linked to them. This could be questions (curiosity), thoughts and beliefs, a description of their selves to inform who they are and likes and dislikes, things they would like to see in their classroom… anything at all!

the classroom had never been so quiet, all cracked on and thought about something to create.

It was such a lovely afternoon getting to watch a German band play to us all on the school field! These very talented visitors are only in the Doncaster area for a week and we were so lucky to have the opportunity to see them performing! Class 12 were also a huge credit and sat so lovely showing wonderful respect to our visitors. Well done as always guys.

Year 3 and 4 are looking forward to perform to you tomorrow morning. 9am the school hall – don’t forget you are also able to enjoy our school summer fayre afterwards with your children.

Looking forward to seeing you there.

Year 3/4 team.

This wonderful little group today have been all hands in deck crafting and creating some backdrops and props for our school’s end of year production of the Wizard of Oz!

Even though it’s been super warm, they have worked hard and every bit has helped massively! Enjoy your weekends guys!

In crew today we were focusing on British values and looking at another religion Judaism.

The children read different stories and were able to discuss and share what they had read in their groups. They also were able to make some connections and similarities to other regions that they have learnt too. Well done guys!
