Tis the week of the Christmas shows, so I hope you are all ready to give a week of truly festive performances!
Room 13 has been struck down with the sickness bug for the last two weeks, so it was lovely to have (almost) everyone back in class on Friday… it’s been far too quiet without all my wonderful pupils!
I do realise that this will affect where everyone is at with their reading book. Therefore, I ask, if you have not already, please read to the end of Chapter 8 by Friday. If you have already completed this, then there is no reading homework for this week. Hopefully this will give everyone a chance to catch up!
I also realise that this is an incredibly busy time for everyone, therefore I have listed some suggested activities for homework and it is up to you which ones you complete.
Maths – Your ability to recall your times tables has improved immensely since August. There’s now a good number of you who can beat me in class! But can you beat the people at home? Try a game of ‘Beat the Family’ and see who comes out on top!
Art – My Christmas tree is still looking a little bare 🙁 I would love to see if you can find some materials at home (possibly ones that you would be recycling anyway) and make me a Christmas decoration for the tree!
HWB – At this time of year it is very easy to forget that it can be a very stressful time for some people (especially your parents!). I have a class of such kind and thoughtful young people and I would love for other people to recognise this too. Your mission is to carry out some random acts of kindness and then share them with me in class. This might be helping with chores, helping people in school, donating something to those in need over Christmas (I’m sure you can think of loads more!).
Again this is your choice to complete these… but hopefully there will be some amazing things to talk about at the end of the week!
Please remember your Christmas outfits for the shows this week. If you could bring them in a bag with your name on it, that will reduce the chance of things getting lost!
Permission forms for our trip on the 18th December must also be returned this week, if they have not been already.
I can’t wait for everyone to see you perform on stage!
Let’s have a great week!
Miss M 🙂
