Hot off the press

This is an amazing piece of work from Skyla.  She has met all the success criteria in writing a most effective newspaper report about the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb, and Miss Leftley and I were particularly impressed by her use of punctuation.  Well done you!

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!

Read all about it ...

Mr Santy has been very sneaky with his success criteria for this piece of work, but Caitlin has managed to meet all 10 points when writing a newspaper report about the discovery of King Tut's tomb.  This is very convincing writing, Caitlin, and I really felt I was reading news that was hot off the press.  Well done you!

Lucky Readers!

Now wonder these folks are looking so proud of themselves.  Their writing about 'The Lucky Dip' film clip they watched shows what great imaginations they have.  They have all used some fantastic vocabulary to make the reader want to find out what happens.  Well done Evie, Justin, Zach and Charlie!

Down in the woods

Here's a young lady who has really liked jumping in the mud! Isobel has LOVED Roydon Fen and worked hard to take part in every activity on offer over the last few weeks.  She especially enjoyed learning how to light a fire safely and, of course, toasting marshmallows!  We are delighted that you got so much out of Forest Schools, Isobel.

Fit for a Pharaoh!

If you ever need to build a pyramid, these are the chaps you need to see!  Dylan and Erhan have used Book Creator on the iPads to compile a list of clear and detailed instructions about the steps you need to take to build and finish a burial site fit for a pharaoh!  A brilliant illustration of your learning, boys - well done!

Bullseye!

Amy has shown us all what a genius she is when it comes to 'dart subtraction'.  Starting with 101, she had to show that she could take away numbers until she reached zero, and she can explain exactly how to do this using a number line.  She can even work the calculations out by partitioning, too.  Well done, brainbox!
