P.E. Circuit Training

On Thursday we went to the gym hall for P.E. . Circuit training is when there is eight to six cones in every corner and in the middle of the hall. This week there was skipping, press ups, burpees, hula hooping, running and squats. You go in a clockwise direction around the hall.

Children In Need

Today the Pupil Council organised a Children In Need day. We had to wear a Super Hero costume or a onesie. Just about everyone in the school dressed up!

In the morning, we announced the winners of our superhero contest. Louise and Rebecca both won prizes. James guessed the teacher’s superhero logo “Super Tingwall Staff”.

We had a Bric a Brac sale and where we could buy lots of toys, books and games. Only a few things never sold. In the end we had to sell everything for 10p.

We made over £200!!

Our whole school – all dressed up!

Our winners!

In class, we discussed why it is important to help people. We came up with different suggestions of how we can help others then organised them in order of importance. All the groups thought giving money to charity was the most important. We also decided that helping others in class, helping with housework and looking after those who are hurt or ill were all important too.

We’d like to thank everyone who donated items for our bring and buy sale, and anyone who donated money. And everyone for dressing up!

Drama

This week we did Drama because we are practising our Christmas play. We learned our positions (in Drama they call it blocking) and we are going to make puppets for our show.

We did drama again on children in need day , we made frozen scenes (made a real life picture) and then someone  came back in the room and guessed what or where our scene was. Some scenes we created were running away from a volcano, a funfair, the Lion King and the Titanic sinking.

Drama with Izzy

We are practising our school play which is called “The Stars Come Out For Christmas” with Izzy. It is really fun being in a play because you get to play a part and speak and sing songs. My favourite song in the play is “Silent Night”. The part I play in the play is fan 1&7 . It is awesome to practise with Izzy because she is funny and really good at setting expression in her voice and always keeps you right!!!!! 🙂

After we looked at gods and goddess we made our own god or goddess it was really fun and colourful.
