We have been working on our throwing and catching skills in the gym as well as playing fun games. We have also been working hard doing lots of different literacy activities to help us read, write and spell. We are getting really good at ordering numbers to 100.
Design a Fairtrade T-shirt competition
The children should use the t-shirt template to design a fairtrade t-shirt. They could include the following;
There will be a winner from each house, plus an overall winner, which will get made into an actual t shirt to be worn at Fairtrade events
The four winners will get 5,000, 3,000, 2,000, 1,000 points/
Designs will be judged on the criteria above.
The children’s entries need to have their name, class and house on it.
If children want to design them on a computer and print them out, that’s fine. Entries to Mr McMullan by Friday 8th November.
