We have had another lovely week with lots hard work and children who have been trying so hard to do their best. I am so proud of the children’s enthusiasm and desire to do well and I know that we will have a wonderful year of learning if this continues. Well done children.

We have been thinking carefully about being generous and grateful in our daily actions and we have continued to share the daily Examen. At the end of each day we reflect upon the day and think about all of the things that we would like to say “Thank you” for.

This week we have been comparing numbers and finding 1, 10 or 100 more or less than a given number. In English, we have read the fable of the Lion and the Mouse and thought about the different characters and also the setting. We have continued to identify different parts of sentences and also identified vowels and consonants. In RE, we have thought about our own families and about Jesus and His family. We have thought about the sort of things that we do as a family and what Jesus would have done with His family. We have written about happy and sad times that we have shared together as families. In RHE this week, we have continued to think about ourselves and our feelings, knowing that we are all special and loved. We have looked at how our actions impact not only on ourselves but also on others and how this makes us feel. We have shared stories about Kester and looked at how his behaviour had an impact on so many other people. We have reflected upon how Kester and Abraham are similar to ourselves and our relationship with God.

Let’s Celebrate:

This week our certificates go to Betsy and Connor Sean. Connor Sean receives a Lizzie Ladybird certificate for trying so hard and making improvement with his work and for really thinking carefully. Great reading Connor Sean. I know that you have tried so hard with your quizzing and what a difference it has made. Well done! I know that you are going to have a brilliant year if you keep this up. Betsy receives a Co-operative Roger Robin certificate for being so caring and understanding towards others. You are such a happy and smiley member of the class and always ready and willing to help others. Thank you so much Betsy, keep up these kind deeds. We are all so grateful for all of your help. We are also delighted that Stanley received the lunchtime Role Model of the Week this week. Well done Stanley, we are so proud of you.
