Last night I had the pleasure of pinning up lots of wonderful shout outs the children have started to write about each other! Some are so lovely and I enjoyed reading them very much.
We are practicing to use howl and character trait vocabulary within our shout outs so I can’t wait to see what they will look like in a few weeks time!
Just look at how wonderful these children have worked at home on their home learning. We have had reading and research on two key figures in WW2, Anne Frank and Winston Churchill and another who has made a beautiful Anderson shelter model for us to display in class! Fantastic efforts by both of you thank you so much!
Today we visited the Pentecostal church charity shop, which is amazing and the money raised goes straight back to support our very own community! We donated some clothes and some toys and while there offered our assistance to help tidy and organise for a few minutes. Well done to all involved I was very proud to see you supporting a community group today!! Great job.
It was an English hook lesson today for the start of our new cycle. The children had some images from our new class texts and several areas to focus on to describe. Colour, buildings, people, emotions, sound and smell. I was very impressed with the amount they managed to generate and how high quality some of the words were! I can’t wait to see how you use them in your writing.
I would personally like to shout out for Lexi in our class. Who has showed such beautiful kindness to my little girl by taking the time to make her a little colouring book! Anola is sat playing now and is so happy you made it for her so I thought I’d share, what a beautiful thing to do Lexi! Thank you.
We had a wonderful expert visitor in school today who had fantastic WW2 knowledge and had even researched into people who lived in Thorne but played keys roles in the war, one who was actually awarded the Victoria Cross.
The children also got to see different original items from the war, uniform, weapons, gas masks and lots of other items too. They were hooked! Just ask them about it, if they haven’t shared with you already.
Year 4s PE session will be on Fridays and XP outdoors will be on Tuesdays up to Christmas.
Please see below information around clothing and kit. Many thanks, year 4!
The children had their first attempt at roll in the wall today. I must say, after a couple of wobbles and a little confusion, they picked it up extremely quickly and did a great job! I was impressed to see how much information each group gathered from the original posters and them remembered at the very end of the lesson. Well done.
The children took to watercolour skills yesterday! Leaning how to colour wash a background. They then cut out some buildings and bridge shapes on black card to create a silhouette and layered them on top. Overall a great job – well done guys!
Just want to say a big thank you to sculpture club. They were fab at listening and learning about the different paper sculpture techniques this week! Check out what they have done below. A few more techniques to show them next week, but they have been set a challenge to think about what they’d like to start to make. Ensuring they apply some of these techniques to create something 3D!
