During outdoor play, the children read clues to find the Gingerbread Man. They used their phonics skills to sound out words. They read the clues and were successful in finding the Gingerbread Man. He will be hiding again tomorrow and there will be more clues to find!

Over the past two days we have been working hard to re-tell the story of the Gingerbread Man, using masks. The children have become very good at remembering key phrases and leading their own learning to re-tell the story during provision.

Lots of working hard and getting smart today in my phonics group!
We are looking forward to celebrating World Book Day on Thursday 7th March.
It would be lovely to see the children dressed up as their favourite book character, but please don’t feel like you have to rush out and buy a costume!
Ā£1 Book Vouchers will be given to children on the day which can be spent in most supermarkets and book shops, but we do also have a Book Fayre coming into school the following week, and children can put their voucher towards the cost of a book at that event – more details to follow soon.
More information can be found on https://www.worldbookday.com

The children have demonstrated some fantastic writing today. Some of them wrote words and sentences during the morning task and some of them chose to write during provision time.
Bakr was very confident in his morning writing. Ola showed her writing from home. Olivia and Ariana wrote shopping lists. Georgia and Maisie wrote sentences to match their pictures.

Today in crew we have launched the Danum Read Aloud competition to our children in KS2 (Year 3,4,5 and 6).
The theme this year is book openings. Children can select their favourite from the selection of extract to perform for their crew. Winners will then go into the KS2 semi-final and winners from that will progress into the school final, held on Thursday 7th March – World Book Day.
One overall winner from our school final will be entered into the Doncaster final held at the Danum Museum and Art Gallery on 27th March.
Good Luck everybody!
