Onesie Friday

Good afternoon,

Today was all about the onesie. And mufti.






We did do a bit of poetry...


...and a touch of fitness...


...and some key competency time.


Oh, one thing we did do was look at a bit of lightsaber choreography...




...and I thought we could try a bit ourselves. To that end each child will need a bike helmet (just in case) and a toy light saber - if they have one that is. There will be a couple of spare sabers (thanks to Jack and Ryan Wassell), and I will try to arrange some light saber proxies (dowel sticks) for those who don't have a saber to hand.

We'll try to be careful!

Descriptive Thursday

Good afternoon,

This morning for writing the focus was adding descriptive language. I gave the children a short sentence...


...and, in pairs, the children were to make it, well, better.










For reading, Ma read a play to us...Shhh! We're watching TV!


:-)

We ended the day with 5 minutes of Clone Wars, Series 5, Episode...umm, 7, I think...with the learning intention being that the children would understand that the music tells the story too.

Maths For R.E.

Good afternoon,

This afternoon, as part of R.E., Room 2, well, integrated some maths. Specifically Venn Diagrams to compare and contrast the celebratory event (a party) to going to church.






Then, instead of handwriting, we listed all that we already know about Star Wars...



...as well as watching how a light saber is put together.



We really need to do some handwriting sometime...!

One Take Tuesday

Good afternoon,

As far as the digital record of what happened today, this is pretty much it.


Still, for what it's worth, it's still pretty cool!

Oh, and speaking of reading, just prior to that, we did this...



...identifying blends in a shared text.

Star Wars Monday

Good evening,

Just in case there was any doubt about the prevailing interest prevalent in Room 2, well...for the last three weeks of this term we have the opportunity to study what ever we like. So, I asked the class what they might like to learn about...




...threw in some democracy, and had a final vote of the top three...


Seeing as this didn't really come as much of a surprise (this was from writing this morning)...


...I had already prepared something for us to use.


And no, I did not influence the vote in anyway!

But have you seen my X Wing miniatures?!
