Wow, wow, wow! What a wonderful Christmas play! We loved seeing all the kids on stage. A proud moment for us both. Thank you all for being there and for helping them learn their lines in the weeks leading up to the concert.
You may have noticed our lovely boat by the white gate has had a bit of a spruce up (thanks Mrs Holtzhouse!). The K&1 children and teachers will be working on an art project involving this – watch out for updates! If you can think of a good name for our boat, please let us know and the children will decide. Also, if anyone has some sewing skills, please let us know as we would love to make a flag for it.
In Literacy, we are continuing our Narrative writing. We have just been working on the story ”Aliens Love Underpants” by Claire Freedman and Ben Cort. A very funny story! We have learnt how to sequence a story through pictures, use adjectives to describe characters and different story openers. Next week, the children will be planning, editing and writing their own stories.
In Math we will be continuing in Subtraction. For homework, I could like the children to complete the Subtraction Activity Sheet by Friday, Dec 13th.
The children are really enjoying all the Animal Presentations. Now we will be continuing into the topic ”Weather and Seasonal Change”.
For Show and Tell next week, the children can either share their favorite Christmas memory or they can bring their favorite book and tell us about it.
Christmas Party will be on the last day of school – December 18th. We’re planning lots of fun activities and games! There will be a sign up sheet on 1A’s door for party contributions. Children must still wear school uniform but they may bring a Christmas hat/something sparkly for their hair. School ends at 2:45pm as usual.
Have a wonderful weekend!
