We learned about Remembrance Day and read a book called, Where the Poppies Now Grow.

We then created some art work.

Later in the term we are going to be developing our drama skills.  Today’s task is to create some puppets and then create a little play using them.  You will need to think about what your characters will say to each other.  Will they have accents?

A really easy way to make puppets is by creating tubes and then sticking a picture of your character to them.  Watch the short video below to see some sheep puppets I have made.

I hope you all have a great day!

We played a game using co-ordinates. We tried to guess where the Halloween characters were hiding and then used the pen to reveal if they were there. We used crosses to mark co-ordinates we had tried.

We learned that co-ordinates  –

•  are written inside brackets
• have a comma
• go along the bottom and then up

Today we started to learn about contractions. We used magic to reveal the answer!

We used what we had learned to create a contractions grid.

We used the Prometheus board to share our understanding.

We had a game of musical characters. We danced to the music and when the music stopped we had to freeze in the pose of a witch, a vampire or Frankenstein. We then spun the spinner and whichever character it landed on was out and had to sit down.

What amazing costumes!

The class voted for their favourite costumes. Well done to Liam for winning and thank you to the parent council for donating the prize!

I hope you’re all looking forward to tomorrow!  I can’t wait!   Fill in the form below if you want to guess what I’m dressing up as.

See you all tomorrow!

Today we had a chance to share our favourite Halloween Characters. We went around the class and stated which one was our favourite. While we were sharing this information we were recording it using tally marks. We then counted up our tally marks and used the information to create a bar graph.

Peer Assessment

We assessed our partner’s work and told them things we liked about it and one thing that they could do better next time.  We are going to be gathering information tomorrow and presenting it in the form of a bar graph so that will give us the chance to work on our feedback.

We began our block of work on gymnastics. Our focus today was travelling in different ways.

Peer Assessment

The children chose other children’s movements they thought were interesting and they got to demonstrate their form of travel.

We have been reading the Iron Man.

Yesterday we read the beginning of chapter 4 of the Iron Man and answered questions about the text. We made sure that we were answering the questions in sentences. We also made predictions about what would happen next in the text.

ASSESSMENT

Today we are going to improve our work by working on the feedback given by Mrs Petrie on our postit notes.
