Hi everyone 😁
Mrs Chapman, the class’ new teacher will be starting next Monday 16th November.
We are doing a visual countdown in class, as well as learning lots of lovely new facts and asking questions about her interests. We have her photo on display, and a little Class Passport Mrs Chapman has written about herself;
My name is Mrs Chapman. I am 43 years old. I am originally from Aberdeen and moved to Glasgow in July to be closer to friends and my brother and his family (especially my nephew Keir in the picture). My husband is Australian and we have been living in Sydney for the past 12 years before moving back to Scotland at the start of last year. I like spending time with friends and family and going on big walks in the countryside. Nice smells and stroking things that feel soft and smooth (like nice material or a cat) makes me feel relaxed. While noisy and busy places sometimes make me feel stressed. When I feel stressed, I take deep breaths or count in my head to calm down. I like to use technology to help make jobs quicker and easier and I like to help children to use technology to help with this too, but I am not so keen on playing computer games. However, I do love playing board games and other more active games. I have been a teacher for 18 years. I chose to become a teacher because I wanted to help children and make learning fun.
Here is a video Mrs Chapman has made that we played today in Class 2;

I hope you enjoyed learning new things about Mrs Chapman 🥰 Our first impressions were that she sounded really friendly and personable.
Have a good week! 😌
