10 things we should say more often

20 things we should say more often

We enjoyed watching this video this morning. We had some great discussions about what we think we should say more often. Children worked in groups to come up with their  own 10 things and created some paper slide videos to show them. Paper slides to come, until then, enjoy the video!

Hannah's cause and effect story

In reading we have been learning to identify cause and effect relationships. Hannah wrote this story showing cause and effect after we read the story 'If you Give a Cat a Cupcake' by Laura Numeroff:

If you give a dog a brownie

If you give a dog a brownie, he will want icing sugar to go with it . He will probably get it all over him.    You will tell him to go in the bath, but he will refuse and want you to take him to the beach. Then he will get scared of sharks and will want to study on them. So you will take him to the museum. When you get there he will be hungry, so you will take him to the cafe. There will be brownies there and he will want icing sugar to go with.

You know it's spring when...

You see daffodil art and poems up in classrooms!








This week we have been working very hard on our daffodil art and daffodil poems to celebrate Daffodil Day. We wrote our poems, trying to use personification. Most of us did some rhyming poems or acrostic poems. Nearly all of us used personification (prancing and dancing were popular).  Personification is when we make an object sound like it is doing a human action. It was very hard doing our art because we had to use tissue paper which rips when we try to stick it down with PVA glue.  When we had done our art Mrs Guy put some coloured paper behind it.  Then she glued our poem onto our art.
