18th and 19th July
We have had a slightly unusual couple of days!
Our classroom is being painted so yesterday we had to move everything out of our room and store it in the corridor and work area so that the painters had room to work. While all this was going on the children began researching an area of our history topic in small groups. First they completed a KWL sheet and then created a simple topic web to guide their research before reviewing the books that we had available to provide them with information. Then they planned and wrote paragraphs about different areas of their topic in readiness for creating their information sheet.
Today we started off in the computer room and then watched and/or took part in a run-through of our summer music concert. (We are performing this again tonight.)
This afternoon we had our PE session with the YMCA and then our Spanish and handwriting sessions.
