December has arrived!
There has been lots of play rehearsing this week but we have tried to keep up with our core subjects.
In maths we have been subtracting a single digit with no crossing of the tens. We have also been subtracting from ten.
We have continued to use the book 'The Emperor of Absurdia' to inspire our writing. This week we have been writing our descriptions of the Wardrobe Monster and sequencing the story.
I hope to see you all at our performances next week for our play 'Prickly Hay'. The children have all worked very hard and I think you will be in for a real Christmas treat.
Have a wonderful weekend.

I can't believe that we are almost in December!
We have started to get 'full-swing' into our Christmas Play Rehearsals. The children should all have taken their lines home and their homework this week is to learn their lines. They need to be able to say their lines clearly and loudly.
In English we have started a new fantasy story 'The Emperor of Absurdia'. The children have been making predictions about what the story will be about using some of the pictures. They have also started to work towards writing a description of the 'Wardrobe Monster' from the story.
In maths we have been pairs of 2 digit numbers where there is crossing of the tens. I have been very impressed with their engagement.
This week we brought our topic 'Emergency 999' to a conclusion. The children worked in pairs to present a 'News Report' about the Fire of London. It was a great opportunity to show off all that they had learnt.
Enjoy the school Christmas Fayre this weekend.

A shorter than usual week for the children this week but we have still managed to pack lots in.
In English we have been sequencing and retelling the story of 'Where the Wild Things Are'. The children all wrote a part of the story and then retold it orally as a group. I was very impressed with their use of the key story vocabulary.
In maths we have continued our unit on Addition and Subtraction. The children have been adding and subtracting multiples of 10 and adding pairs of 2 digit numbers.
We are coming to the end of our 'Emergency 999' topic and this week we have been recapping on our learning so far. Over the next few weeks the children will be working in pairs to create a News Report about the Great Fire of London.
From next week our Christmas Performance Rehearsals will begin. We have already started to learn the songs and most of the children have been given their parts. All their words will be sent home next week. Your help getting them to learn their lines, at home, and say them clearly is much appreciated.
Enjoy your longer weekend. Keep Warm!!
