Coming to a cinema near you!

These three superstars have written some amazing stories about Iron Man's return - soon to be made into films, apparently!  Lucy, Rochella and Stevie's vocabulary choices certainly make for a gripping read, and the blurbs on the back really draw you in.  Great work, folks!

New teacher in town!

Arman is a double achiever this week because he has been helping Deer and Foxes to learn about Islam over the last few weeks.  His teachers and HLTAs have been very impressed by his wide knowledge and his very mature teaching style, and the children have been talking very enthusiastically about their new teacher.  Great news, Arman!

How to ...

Jack, Chloe, Samuel, Levi, Annie, Ocean, Darcie, Taylor and the rest of Deer class are on a mission to prove to me that they know how to look after goldfish and should keep some as class pets.  These instructions are so clearly laid out and detailed, and show how carefully the watched the video they were shown, I think I'm going to HAVE to say yes now!  Great work, folks!

An explosion of writing!

Blythe, Xanthe, Leon, Gary, Charlie, Jasmine and Megan have shown what an enormous amount they have learned about volcanoes so far this term.  The leaflets they have created are designed and illustrated so that they draw the reader in to find out more.  Great work, folks!

Poor Monty!

There is no way anyone could resist the request Sophie and Rosie have made to Santa.  Poor Monty desperately wants a friend and after Santa has read their persuasive letters, he is bound to grant their wish!  Super pieces of work, girls!

The Giant Worm!

After reading the story of Beowulf, Amber has written her own version, including a monster and a hero.  She has used some lovely phrases and imaginative adjectives to produce a beautifully illustrated story.  A lovely read, Amber!

Property Section

If you fancy buying a Tudor house, you really need to read these sales pitches!  Morgan, Yasmine, Natalie, Rudi and Edward's use of estate agent jargon is superb and anyone of these properties sounds like an absolute bargain!  Just need to save up some groats!  Well done, folks!

Trying Tudor Times

What a detailed account of the trip to Kentwell Hall Reuben has written!  It almost felt like I had spent the day with him!  He used some lovely time vocabulary to describe the sequence of events as well.  Great effort, Reuben!

Tudor portraits

These Tudor pictures are AMAZING!  Erhan and Wiktoria worked particularly hard to make their portraits the very best they could, and you certainly can tell who they are.  Very effective pieces of art work, folks!

Buenos días

Even Mr Castro is pleased with Jake's Spanish.  Mr Castro tried to catch the children out by changing the words he was using, but Jake was just too quick for him.  He has shown that he has paid attention in his lessons and it is paying off.  Good news indeed!

The life and times of ...

 

What a lot Adam and Oliver have achieved in their lives so far, and what fascinating reads their autobiographies make!  They are beautifully written and illustrated, contain so much interesting information and made me laugh - a lot!  These are brilliant homework projects, chaps!

Read all about it!

Here's a very proud gentleman, and no wonder!  Max has been practising his reading every day in school and at home.  He is very enthusiastic in his group reading sessions and showed this in his latest assessment.  Great news, Max!

In the news

Noah has used all he has learned about Tudor jousting to create a brilliant and very entertaining news report and commentary using Puppet Pals on an iPad.  His use of the present tense and vocabulary choices really add to the excitement.  Who will win the hand of the princess?

A place in the sun

Majorca? Florida? Disneyland Paris?  Cara, Isla and Mia's stunningly eye-catching brochures make each destination sound so tempting.  They have used a mixture of interesting facts and colourful pictures to convince the reader that their deal is the best - I'm convinced anyway!

All the fun of the fair!

Miss Leftley was really pleased to see Luke and Qing working so co-operatively together, and just look at the fruits of their labours!  They have used the K'Nex most imaginatively to make these two fairground rounds that work so effectively.  Well done, lads!

Fantastic fractions

Rebecca worked all by herself to work out these fraction problems.  No wonder Mrs Collis was impressed by her understanding.  Well done, Rebecca!

And the weather will be ...!

I wonder whether the Met Office have seen Lleyton's amazing weather forecast!  He used Puppet Pals on the iPad to create a brilliant animated weather report that also showed his knowledge of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.  Well done, Lleyton!

Outstanding progress

These three ladies have been reading in every spare moment they have and their reading has got better and better.  Miss Leftley is astounded by the incredible progress they have made already this term.  Keep up the good work, girls!

A day in the life of a cat!

Erin certainly showed she has been listening carefully in English lessons when she wrote an account of a day in the life of a cat.  She included some great words and phrases, her account was really well structured.  Well done, Erin!

Dear Diary ...

Adam, Ryan and Laylah wrote really convincing and descriptive diary entries of a day in the life of Edith Cavell.  What fantastic vocabulary choices!
