We’re Going On A Bear Hunt – Campfire Style

12th November 2024Joshua Meade

Today we have snuggled up around a real camp fire, whilst enjoying hot chocolate and biscuits that Mrs Robertson had very kindly made for us on the fire. We read one of our key texts, ‘We’re going on a bear hunt’, and then this afternoon used outdoor equipment to re tell the story using props. #LovePlover

We’re Going On A Bear Hunt!

12th November 2024Amy Woods

Today we have snuggled up around a pretend camp fire, that we worked together to build, and enjoyed hot chocolate and biscuits. We read one of our key texts, ‘We’re going on a bear hunt’, and then came back inside to re tell the story using props.

We are SPaG superstars

14th October 2024Laura Brown

In English lessons, we have been working super hard to accurately punctuate sentences by identifying the verb, subject and leftovers. Everyone has worked well both collaboratively and independently. Your subject knowledge and ability to explain has been very impressive. Keep up the good work!

Story mapping – Goldilocks

11th October 2024Amy Woods

Nursery have worked hard over the last two days, to collaboratively create a story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. We discussed story sequencing such as the start and the end, and used our story map to help us independently re tell the story afterwards.

5S analyse the features of non-chronological reports

11th October 2024Mr Schofield

5S have worked brilliantly in pairs this morning to analyse the features of an expedition-related text which takes the form of a non-chronoligical report.

We read the text together then identified the features and their purpose, before sharing our ideas as a class.

We are persevering with dictionary dilemmas!

10th October 2024Mrs Haycock

Finding words in a dictionary can be a tricky skill to learn; but with weekly practice, we are getting there. Some children are even ready to take on ‘Haycock the Hustler’ and compete to be the quickest to find all of our Speedy Reading key words.
