Two thirds of the class have reached or are about to reach their reading target set at the beginning of the half term. We are determined as a class to help the other third make the progress they can. We all need to be Sadie Spiders - determined to read as much as possible- reading is the key to all learning- it boosts confidence and leads to exciting new insights. Please read over the Holiday- please do not stop!

Master the oral story telling of Gellert. Can you learn the first two paragraphs using the images up loaded here? . I am looking for children who can take it one step further and learn the whole story. I have downloaded it here for you. You may take sheets of paper from school to create your images. I will film us performing the story next week so you can see it on our class page.
