This week has been busy!

We finished drawing our daffodils and they are now proudly displayed on our classroom wall – they look beautiful.

We started to learn the 100 commonly misspelled words. Some of these are very easy but people still get them wrong sometimes.

We have been revising our times tables in Numeracy. We have been chanting them out loud in class and doing lots of calculations to get used to using them again. We have also been playing some Countdown which helps us to practise using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division in the same activity. It’s hard, but we’re enjoying the challenge.

Yesterday the Jeely Piece Club came in. We were working on team building games and took part in an art activity where we had to make stunning dresses out of bin bags – Jaidon, Azaan, John Jr., Iqra, Anum, Mohamed, Ismaeel, Inaaya, Bashayer and Fahad had their look transformed. Lots of mums and dads got to see this activity as it was Meet the Teacher afternoon. It was great to have them there.

In gym we have been learning more about how to play hockey. Mr McDonald has been helping us and we are really enjoying learning the rules and getting involved.

We have also started to learn about stained glass windows in RERC and Expressive Arts. We are going to be designing our own stained glass window next week. We can’t wait!
