This week we have been very busy getting prepared for our production of 'The Inn-Spectors'. I have been very impressed with how well the children have all learnt their lines. Hopefully they will all deliver them clearly on the day. I am sure that you will all enjoy the play and we look forward to seeing lots of you at Wednesday and Thursday's performances.
We have still managed to fit in lots of our 'normal' work this week too. We have continued our writing inspired by our book 'The Emperor of Absurdia'. We have also been adding pairs of 2 digit numbers and looking at subtracting a single digit from a 2 digit number.
The children have all taken a note home tonight asking that they bring in a pair of P.E. shorts and vest / PE t-shirt to wear underneath their costumes. If we could have those in for Tuesday for our dress rehearsal and performance. Thank you!
Enjoy your weekend!

Well December has arrived. The countdown to Christmas begins!
The rehearsals for our Christmas Performance are going well and the children are all enjoying performing. Please remember to help your children with their lines making sure that they can say them clearly and loudly.
In maths we have been adding pairs of 2 digit numbers. We have used base 10, drawn representation and started to use a more formal partitioning method. This week's homework will reinforce this learning.
In English we have started a new story called 'The Emperor of Absurdia'. The children are enjoying the story and have started to prepare for some description writing of the main characters.
The children were excited to see snow on Thursday morning. When we have snowy and wet weather it is always a good idea for the children to have some spare socks or tights in their book bags. At least then, if their feet get wet, they will have a dry pair to change into.
Have a wonderful weekend!

The weeks are rushing by too quickly this half term!
The children have continued to enjoy our Art this week and learning about famous artists. We have been mixing colours with white, this week, to create 'tints'. The children used these tints to create a 'Paul Klee' inspired picture. Once again I was very impressed with their skill, care and artistic talent.
In English we have been describing the setting where the 'Wild Things' live. We have thought about the things we might see, hear, feel and smell. Next week we are beginning a new story with a 'Fantasy' setting.
In maths we have continued to add multiples of 10 to a 2 digit number. We have also begun to look at adding pairs of 2 digit numbers where there is no crossing of the tens.
The children should all have taken their lines for the Christmas play home with them tonight. Their homework is to practise their lines. Your help with this is much appreciated.
I hope you enjoy the Christmas Fayre on Saturday (those of you who are planning to go).
