Hello P3A families,<\/p>\n

Here are this week\u2019s highlights from the Yellow table:<\/p>\n

Diana and Laura said the best part of their week was making our new role-play jewellery making shop.\u00a0 Our previous cinema was not getting as many visitors so we decided to change it and the next most popular vote was a jewellery shop.\u00a0 A group who was interested in making this, including Diana and Laura, had a \u00a310 budget.\u00a0 They worked together to shop on Amazon for beads and elastic string.\u00a0 They calculated what was too expensive and what items totalled their \u00a310.\u00a0 Their shop sign looks very sparkly and I\u2019m sure they will get lots of visitors to their shop.<\/p>\n

Riley loved football with Miss White on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Vivien\u2019s highlight was teaching the class how to draw a house using one pencil movement.\u00a0 You were not allowed to lift the pencil from the page.\u00a0 She started it off as a challenge.\u00a0 She showed the children what she wanted them to draw and they practised it on whiteboards.\u00a0 It was so tricky!\u00a0 Even Mrs Brown could not do it!\u00a0 In the end, she revealed the steps.\u00a0 Thank you Vivien for this super problem-solving lesson!<\/p>\n

Linda loved the story from our \u2018Read, Write, Count\u2019 bags called \u2018The Worry Tiger\u2019.\u00a0 In this story, Rory came out of his den to discover a\u00a0 jungle had grown in his bedroom!\u00a0 We decided we wanted to transform our classroom into a jungle too!\u00a0 Mrs Brown already had lots of vines so the children drew different jungle animals and put them all around the room.<\/p>\n

Hasika said that her learning highlight was note taking.\u00a0 For our writing this week, we continued to examine description writing.\u00a0 As an extension to \u2018Honey Bees\u2019, we had a choice of writing about a ladybird or a dragonfly.\u00a0 The children watched a short documentary piece on each and while they did, they jotted down some notes which would support them when they came to write their own descriptive piece.\u00a0 What fascinating creatures these bugs are!<\/p>\n

Aadya also enjoyed writing a descriptive piece about ladybirds.\u00a0 She included all of the features:\u00a0 title, introduction, characteristics and evaluation.\u00a0 Well done Aadya!<\/p>\n

Angel absolutely loved playing bench ball!\u00a0 We finally moved on to playing this game after acquiring all the skills needed.\u00a0 The score was 3-0.\u00a0 We look forward to game two on Monday!<\/p>\n

Olivia liked creating a piece of art called \u2018Circles\u2019 that Diana showed everyone how to do.\u00a0 It involved drawing around various sized circles that overlapped and colouring each section a different colour.\u00a0 Everyone managed to draw their circles and has made a start on the colouring.\u00a0 To be continued\u2026<\/p>\n

My highlight was watching the confidence of the two young ladies, Diana and Vivien as they delivered their lesson to the class.\u00a0 As the class carried out the tasks, they went around supporting.\u00a0 This has sparked the interest of some others who want to teach the class something too!\u00a0 Some future teachers in the making perhaps?<\/p>\n

Congratulations to Ollie, our hot chocolate award winner this week!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Regards<\/p>\n

Mrs Brown<\/p>\n
