Reading
Most of the class are really getting into their reading stride. I am delighted to see children carefully selecting books that are challenging yet accessible- this is a very important and mature skill. Children are experiencing increased reading success and their is a buzz in the room at reading time! Well done everyone. KEEP READING EVERY NIGHT- we need to improve our daily reading times now!
Assembly lines
Some children have assembly lines- please make sure you know them for Monday!
Spelling
We have synonyms for feelings: sad and fear. Can you learn the spellings:
Livid, furious and irritated
Petrified, and anxious
When we write we are trying to choose the right word- sometimes the words we know are just not powerful enough!
Purple Mash
I am sure the children have already told you about our new computing platform- Purple Mash. The children have all been to a purple mash club at lunchtime run by Year 6. Today we completed our first task in class- writing about our history topic “Ancient Greece”. I have set two "2do” tasks for the children:
Task one: Game - Testing your 3 and 6 times tables facts
Task two: As requested A Slide Show. Creating a slide show all about your passion! Mrs Hotchkiss would have to create one all about sewing or Manchester Utd!
I have set up the tasks and the folders into which the work needs saving!
Have fun!
