We have made it to the last day of a very successful and enjoyable term.
On Wednesday we had our Christmas Party. The children enjoyed decorating their own party crowns in the morning before playing party games, eating party food and meeting Father Christmas!
We have also spent time this week recapping the phonics sounds we have learnt since the start of Year One and learning the new 'ue' digraph. In maths we have started to learn how to read o'clock times. In English we have also been writing a diary of what our class elf has been doing each day. The children have enjoyed predicting what the elf will do on the following day and some of their predictions have come true!
After the Christmas holidays our PE days will be back to Monday and Thursday and our new topic will be 'Superheroes'. Keep an eye out for the new curriculum overview so you can see what we will be learning in each subject.
Thank you to anyone who gave a Christmas gift - it is never expected but is appreciated.
Have a lovely few weeks and Happy Christmas if you celebrate it.
See you again on Tuesday 3rd January 2023!

We have had a very festive week in Pear Tree Class! The highlight of the week has definitely been the Christmas performance. I am so proud of how all the children sang, danced and acted and they all really enjoyed themselves. I hope that you enjoyed watching the performance too.
In other news, a lot more children have been reading at home this week and we are happy to say that Aslan is back in our reading area, having won the KS1 Reading Challenge this week.
Have a lovely weekend and try to stay warm!

We have had a festive end to the week in Pear Tree Class. We have been rehearsing our play 'Prickly Hay' and the children are excited about performing to you next week.
An elf has been sent to our classroom from Father Christmas, to make sure that all the children are following our school Golden Rules in the run up to Christmas. We will wait to see what the elf gets up to over the next few weeks...
In PSHE we have been learning about who our special people are and why they are special to us. The children created their own card to say thank you to their special person for looking after them (hopefully you should have received one at home!)
In English we have been learning about postcards and the children have written a postcard from Florence Nightingale's point of view to her sister, recounting what she has done at Scutari Hospital.
We've had a drop in the number of children reading at home over the last few weeks. Please make sure you are reading with your child at least three times a week, ideally every day. The children really want Aslan back in the reading area so please support them with this at home.
Enjoy the weekend and I will see you again on Monday.
