Day: September 5, 2024

Hudson, Elias and Nathan – I am so impressed that you have taken on our context of Italy and worked on your own project at home. You created the inside of the colosseum, paying close attention to detail. In these pictures, we can see the gladiator battle scene – alongside the animals kept in cages below the wooden floors. You also stated that you attempted to make the outside (finding it very tricky, with its curved edge!). P7 loved hearing about why and where you put each piece of lego. They particularly enjoyed the emperor!

 

Reading with P2 gives the children the opportunity to practise, the important values of respect, care, valuing difference, responsibility, friendship and including others. Through reading and caring for smaller children older children learn the skills associated with empathy and compassion through activities in the classroom. It allows them to embed a culture of reading for enjoyment across the whole school whilst also being able to identify the needs of a different audience to their peers.
