Remember this?



During the Christmas holidays you all wrote a Horrid Henry play.
Next week, we are going to perform the playscripts in your reading time and we are going to practise writing more playscripts.

I will add a few websites in the next few days.

Enjoy your weekend!

Special message for Marta

Marta,

I hope you are feeling much better now. You can send messages to us on here tomorrow if you are off school again.

I was bitten by a dog when I was about 8 years old - if you look closely, you can see a scar next to my left eye. I've had loads of dogs since and I haven't had any more problems.

I know we are all looking forward to you coming back to school to cheer up our room with your big smile!

See you soon,

Miss Sam

Commas make a difference!



In class we have been looking at how commas can change the sense of a sentence.
Look at the two pictures and see how the comma changes what they mean!!!
See you on Monday! xxx

Even more buddy mask instructions!



More buddy masks!




Buddy masks!






Well done to you all for your excellent effort in writing mask-making instructions!

Though there were some spelling and grammar mistakes, I was impressed with the standard of your work and I know that your buddies will enjoy making them.

Here are some photos showing instructions that were very clear OR had diagrams/images to help with understanding.

I look forward to scanning other people´s work after the next buddy project.

Well done once again!

This week we will be writing... RECOUNTS

Do you remember way back in September when we were writing biographies and autobiographies? Well, as that was such a long time ago, we are going to revise writing recounts this week.

We have been writing some recounts over the last few months (postcards, diaries and letters) and I'm sure you will all remember how to write them!

If you get the chance, look at this recount book before tomorrow.

See you soon!

Miss Sam

Important message for Lara

Lara,

When will you be back with us? I am having trouble with my e-mail account but will try to send the information to you on Monday at school.

For now, please do the BUDDY homework you can see below, revise from the Science Revision website (particularly Days 19 and 20) and revise fractions, decimals and percentages (go to: www.bbc.co.uk/schools and the maths section, particularly BBC Bitewise Key Stage 2).

Hope that helps!!

Miss Sam

Buddy homework





For next Wednesday:
Write instructions for how to make an animal mask (using a paper plate).
Remember it is for your buddy in first grade so the vocabulary should be quite simple.
YOU MUST include drawings and writing.
Please colour it in.
Use the SUCCESS CRITERIA to check your work.

Example of how you can write the title:

HOW TO MAKE A/AN _______________ MASK

Important message: Gymnastics next Monday!



Hope you are all still having a great holiday. Thanks Enaitz for your message all the way from the Basque Country!! What's "Happy Easter" in Basque?

Congratulations Natalia - we all look forward to seeing your medal and hearing about your win. It sounds like you've been revising a lot so well done! I hope you had a lovely time in the south with your doggies (and your family!).

Just to let you know that we will be doing GYMNASTICS on Mondays this term and tennis on Fridays so please bring your kit! Anyone who is a particular expert and would like to help me coach, please feel free. I think Natalia will be a big help for gymnastics and Bruno will be a great tennis coach but I know there are more of you out there!

See you on Monday!
