What a magically wonderful day!

Double, double toil and trouble;

Fire burn and cauldron bubble.

Well witches and wizards, I’ve been blown away today with your magic potions. You have done absolutely amazing jobs. Your ingredients made me feel rather queasy!

Shout outs go to Shyaw, Elizabeth, Junior, Alfie, Harper, Alfie M, Jamilia, Troy, Shashank, Ksawery, Alesha, Agrima, Dalton, Bethannie, William, Mohamad and Nastazja. Well done to you all, this Plover Posse Award is yours!

Don’t forget our Y3/4 Quiz on Friday at 1.30. It’ll be great fun!

I hope you all have a lovely afternoon and enjoy the sunshine while it lasts. See you tomorrow!

Wednesday 24th June

Good Morning – well today is going to be a scorcher! Make sure you wear a hat and use sunscreen if you go outside.

We have some lovely activities for you to do for English today – writing settings and magic potions – you could even make some magic potions and take a photo and share with me.

We are continuing with coordinates in one quadrant in maths – complete the slides and I will have a fun challenge for you.

Have a lovely day,

Keep safe

Mrs Graves

Good morning Key Stage One. Today we are planning for our diary. First, here is an example diary to help you understand what your diary could look like.

Dear diary, 

Today has been very exciting. A tiger came to tea! The doorbell rang and it was a tiger! He was tall with orange fur and black stripes. He ate all our food and he drank all of our drink. There wasn’t even any water left in the tap! Then the tiger went home. Daddy let us go out for tea. I had sausages and ice cream. We bought some tiger food. I wonder if the tiger will come back again?

To help me organise my thoughts, I will make a list about what I want to talk about in my diary. When I write my diary tomorrow, I will use this list and turn each word or phrase (a few words) to support my thinking. You could use your story map to help with this. 

1st – Mummy and me were having tea

2nd – The doorbell rang. Tiger! 

3rd – Cakes eaten

4th – The drinks were drank

5th – Tiger goes home

6th – Tea

7th – Tiger food

8th – will he come back?

Tomorrow, we will write our diary. Today you need to only concentrate on the plan. You can email your plan to [email protected] who can check it for you.

YEAR 1 EXAMPLE

Dear diary, 

Today has been very exciting. A tiger came to tea! The doorbell rang and it was a tiger! He was tall with orange fur and black stripes. He ate all our food and he drank all of our drink. There wasn’t even any water left in the tap! Then the tiger went home. Daddy let us go out for tea. I had sausages and ice cream. We bought some tiger food. I wonder if the tiger will come back again?

YEAR 2 EXAMPLE

Dear diary, 

The most exciting thing happened today. Me and mummy were about to have a tea party with cakes when the doorbell rang. We didn’t know who it was. When we got to the door, it was a tiger! He came in and started eating all of our food! He ate sandwiches, cakes and all the tins and packets in the cupboard. Then he drank all of our drinks and so much water that there was nothing left in the tap! We were very surprised when he left! We told daddy everything that had happened and he took us out for tea. I enjoyed sizzling sausages and ice-cream. On the way home we bought some tiger food. I am excited to see if he comes tomorrow. What a wonderful day!

To help me organise my thoughts, I will make a list about what I want to talk about in my diary. When I write my diary tomorrow, I will use this list and turn each word or phrase (a few words) to support my thinking. You could use your story map to help with this.
