What. A fantastic morning we had today, hearing from a real life author and illustrator! He inspired many of us to make our own characters and stories up. Watch this space in the coming weeks to see what we came up with! #loveplover

Reading Superstars
The children in my Reading group have been working so hard with their reading fluency and comprehension and together have read over 1,250,000 words!
Today we had a fruit party to celebrate and the children had a great time.
We’re already working towards our next target of 1,500,000 and planning our next reward.

LKS2 Young Readers – Books, Biscuits and Superheroes!
Today, we were so pleased to welcome volunteers from Amazon into our school for our first Young Readers event.
The volunteers shared a quiz and a story with the children and then challenged them the create their very own Superhero.
Everyone was so engaged in the task, as paper and tape were turned into capes and masks! It was great to hear how imaginative the children were , when coming up with their superhero names and super powers.
This was followed by a visit to our magical book room, where children were able to select a book of their choice to take home. Everyone was so excited and couldn’t wait to get started reading their book – so that’s just what we did – with a biscuit of course.
A huge ‘Thank You’ goes to all the Amazon volunteers, who delivered their workshops with real pizazz, and another ‘Thank you’ goes to the National Literacy Trust’s Young Readers Programme and Vicki, who made it all happen.
This is the first of three event that we are so lucky to be able to share with Year 3 and 4 this summer. We can’t wait for the next one in a few weeks.

Innovating the Gingerbread Man
Yesterday and today the children have come up with different ‘happily ever after’ endings to innovate our Gingerbread man story. Well done to the children who have worked hard to write their ending independently using finger spaces, Fred fingers and correct letters.
Beautiful writing from Laura “The dolphin makes a magical bridge for the Gingerbread Man to cross the river!” #LovePlover
Oakland Care Home Visitors
Thank you to the lovely ladies who came to read stories to our children yesterday. We can’t wait to share our stories with you as part of our final product. #LovePlover
Blending
Today we have been working hard on our oral blending . We had to say the sound in each hoop, before blending it together to say the whole word.

Who’s trip trapping over my bridge?!
For case study 1 we have been looking at the key text, The 3 Billy Goats Gruff. After reading the story, we collaboratively created a story map, before acting it out ourselves in small groups.
The children showed great courage in acting out the roles infront of their peers.

Three Billy Goats Role Play
We looked at some of the vocabulary from our text. Then the children were able to retell the whole story, once we’d created the setting and chosen our characters. #LovePlover
A lovely walk to the library with F2BP…
What a gorgeous morning we had, walking to our local library. We spent some time looking at books and then listened to a great story! Mrs Bubb was so proud of our excellent behaviour, road safety and how respectful we were whilst in the library. Some of us would like to join the library now! #loveplover
Crew Meade Visit the Library
As part of our fieldwork, we visited our local library this morning. We enjoyed a lovely sunny walk to a wonderful, peaceful place full of magical books and stories. The children got to see lots of different books, we listened to a classic and hopefully lots us of will be signing up to visit more regularly! #LovePlover
