The children have enjoyed the Christmas themed work this week and have very much earned their holidays.
This week we have been playing drama games to develop our voice and dialogue. What fun we had seeing the expressions on people’s faces as we demonstrated different emotions.
We also took part in a game where we developed our understanding of needs and wants. We were told by the Prime Minister that we had 30mins to gather our stuff as we would be leaving to go and live on another planet. We worked in groups to choose things we would take with us to help us survive. Mrs Clyne hopes she is never stranded with us because mobile phones and games consoles would not be good choices!
During this week’s work on The Power of Kindness Calendar we learned what a refugee is and Mrs Clyne read the story “There’s a Boy Just Like Me” which we were surprised to know was written by 9 year old Frasier Cox when he won a writing competition. Maybe next year one of us might win the competition?
On Thursday we celebrated the end of term with our Christmas party and this was the highlight of the week for most children. Here’s what they said:
Elisha “I enjoyed the party.”
William “I enjoyed the Grand Old Duke of York.”
Jarrad “I liked the balloon game.”
Finn “I enjoyed learning the first aid skills.”
Luke C “I enjoyed Pass the Parcel.”
Kayden “I enjoyed the dancing competition.”
Well done to the children for all their hard work this term. I hope that Santa is good to them all and I wish you all a very happy and relaxing Christmas break. See you in January.
