Today we learned all about the Christmas Story.

We loved using the Nativity Scene to retell the story with the figures.

Yesterday Mrs Keith came to visit us and do some work all about what makes good communication.

We know you have to look at the person when you are speaking to them, speak clearly and speak in a loud voice.

We loved all her teddies.

On Friday we read ‘The Train Ride’ by June Crebbin.

We split into pairs and made our own story maps to tell the story.
