It’s been a busy day in class!  We started off with our Music lesson with Ms Stewart before returning to class to work on measuring with the help of Miss Newbold.  We’ve been measuring using metre sticks over the past few weeks but the children have been keen to work with smaller units of measurement too.  Today we tried drawing lines of a given length using rulers.  This is actually a tricky skill but one that they all picked up quickly.  We enjoyed playing a game of ‘Measurement Tag’ to reinforce these skills.

Today is also National Poetry Day so we listened to several poems during the day, including the Shetland dialect poem ‘Eence Apon A Time’ by Vagaland.

We then took this year’s theme of counting and tried to create a Harvest themed poem that rhymed.  We worked in pairs to support each other with that as getting a line that makes sense and rhymes is tricky!  We will continue with this on Friday!

The afternoon saw us enjoying some time outside while this beautiful weather holds!

Finally, we welcomed Michelle McAdoo into class and she talked us through what a Harvest festival in the Christian church would look like.

She told us about the importance of thanking God for everything he’s provided but also about how important it is to give and share.

At the end of the day, she gave us all some sweets that we were to give away to someone deserving.  Thank you Michelle for a wonderful visit!
