A massive well done to all of the KS1 children! Over the last few weeks they have been working so hard to sing songs beautifully, act out their words clearly and put on a wonderful show for you all. They did themselves proud. Well done to each and every one of you!

In History today we have a debate. We were considering why people wanted to kill King James I. We were giving different options to consider and debate with our class mates.

What an exciting week! This week we have had the chance to go to the Village Hall to practise the Christmas performance. The children have been singing beautifully, getting into character superbly and have remembered their words amazingly. You are in for a treat.
This week we have started to learn about time in maths and the children have been reading the time shown on an analogue clock. Next week we will be drawing our own hands on clock to show times.
At the beginning of the week, we received a letter from Santa so we spent our English lessons planning and writing letters back to Santa. We've also had an elf called Ralph join our class this week who has come to watch us and keep an eye on us, before reporting back to Santa.

The children have been working hard this week, continuing to learn about The Gunpowder Plot. They have made their own books that sequence the events of what happen and they look lovely up in the classroom.
They have finished writing their own versions of 'We're Going on a Bear Hunt' were they made some adaptations to the original story. They chose a different animal that they were looking for and chose different habitats too.
As well as all of that, they have been practising the Christmas performance. Not long now!
We're Going on a Bear Hunt
In English this week (week beginning 11th November), we have started to learn about a text called 'We're going on a Bear Hunt'. We have enjoyed watching Michael Rosen perform the story on a video and then used this to help us perform the story in small groups. We have been picking out the key adjectives that are used in the story to help us write our own expanded noun phrases.
Firework poetry
Monday 4th November
Since returning back to school we have been exploring the features of poems and have been using our senses to describe different aspects of fireworks and bonfire night. We have also spent some time performing poems too. This week we will be planning and writing our own poems, applying the features we have been exploring.
