Super writers!

I am so proud of our phonics group today. They worked so hard on sitting properly, holding their pencils, sitting their letters on the lines and starting from the right place. They even spelled some words correctly and wrote them beautifully! They have been working hard and getting smart!

Preparing for our CoL (Celebration of Learning)!

We started the week in mini crews planning what we could have at our celebration of learning. We then did a gallery walk to see everyoineā€™s ideas. After that, we decided which posters we would need at the event and we worked in pairs to make them. We have been artists and planners and writers!

1C Recount A Trip… Through Drama!

Yesterday, 1C recounted their trip to The Deaf School using actions and signs! This helped us remember what we did in chronological order, in order to help us prepare to write up our own recounts of the day!

Deaf School Recount

Yesterday, the children did a verbal recount of their school trip to The Deaf School. Then today the children worked hard to text mark the model recount. They got smart and learnt about the features used within a recount write. #LovePlover

Amazing Stories in F2!

The children loved the story we made up together so they made their own stories up. Mrs Bubb was so impressed with their imaginations, they got postcards! Can you see which characters are in our stories and where they are set?

Time to Read Tuesday

This Tuesdayā€™s Snuggle and Story was lovely. We had some of our lovely parents coming to share books and snuggles with their children. We all picked a new book to take home. We talked about our British Value of ā€˜Libertyā€™ and how we get lots of choices in school. Some children decided to draw their favourite book too. We love reading in F2!

Wonderful writers!

Well done to Raegan and Lucas who produced wonderful plans about local hero, Douglas Bader. Both boys tried so hard to not only do their neatest handwriting but also remember all the key information we had learnt. Well done boys, I can’t wait to see your final fact files!

Characters

In F2, we have been thinking about characters from the stories we have read. This week, we are thinking about characters for our own seaside adventures. We talked about them and then went to create them using drawings, paintings, models or play dough in provision.

A signed recount!

This morning we have started our brand new unit of writing – writing a recount! As part of our new unit we discussed what a recount is and what some of the features are. We then used our experts (Thank you Miss Henderson and Mr Anderson) to learn some of the signs to help us orally retell our model text.
