Tuesday 17th May

We started off the day with Handwriting, Touch-typing and class blog. Then we did work on poems. One group did Acrostic poem, which is writing their names downwards, and writing about themselves for each letter. Then my group did poems with rhymes in it. It was very hard to find out words that rhyme. Then we did maths problem solving until we had an early dinner.
After dinner we walked down to the marina to go on the Swan. We got to go down below the boat and go in the beds it was great fun. Some people also got to steer the boat. Everyone enjoyed looking out at the good view and being at the bow of the boat. Everyone really liked the afternoon and want to go again.

P1-3 went on the swan in the morning. On the swan they got tea juice and biscuits and they got to steer the boat. Everyone helped to pull the sail up. Everyone really enjoyed it. After the swan they had a big session of play block. Some of them went on laptops some played with Lego and the others played Schools. They all enjoyed it. At the end of the day Mr K tested the class to figure out were everyone was in maths and then it was home time.
