A fantastic trip to Tamworth Castle today! It really helped our historical knowledge and study of castles! We helped one of the servants to prepare a knight ready for battle. We helped Lady Ferrers to get ready for a banquet. We explored each part of the castle and walked the walls, it was amazing…

In English we have been looking at a variety of emotion words for characters in our story “The day the crayons quit.” We used a thesaurus to find synonyms to include in our final letters to Duncan. 

Class 1 have had a fantastic time finding out all about Lunar New Year. They have made dancing dragons and tried using chopsticks. They know this is the year of the snake. 

Inspired by a non-fiction book “Great women who changed the world” Holly created a poster at home all about Rosa Parkes! Fantastic work! 

Reception are working really hard in phonics! They can now read and spell words with some Phase 3 digraphs and trigraphs! 

Year 2 have almost finished a maths unit about money! They have been counting coins and notes, choosing the correct coins to pay for an item and solving problems. Our supermarket role play area helped with this too. Well done Year 2! 

In English we have been creating character descriptions about Evil Pea!
Year 2 thought of some amazing adjectives and synonyms. They used them to create expanded noun phrases. 

Class 1 had a great time with their friends eating Christmas dinner. Yum! 

The whole school came together to prepare our Christingles ready for our service in church.

Children were able to explain the meaning behind each part and helped each other. 

Our Christmas Post Office role play area is now open! The children have loved exploring the resources and using their imaginations! There are lots of opportunities for writing too! 

As part of our topic about festivals of light, we have been exploring the meaning and symbolism of Advent. We worked together to create our own Advent wreath and Year 2 wrote some fantastic Advent prayers.
