French Day

On French day we dressed up in French clothes or blur [blue],
rouge [red] and blanc [white]. In the morning we went to
different lessons, about French things. We made tunes in French,
learned the French names for different types of foods, and lots more!
We also did a French activity booklet and Twittered in French as well.
It was so much fun!!

Some great websites we've used.

We've been trying out some different websites and software. Here is one of our favourites.

Comic Life - great for any type of writing.

You can download it to try out for 30 days before buying. Look for the education license if you decide to buy.

New Children's Laureate

Anthony Browne (pictured) has been announced and what he has to say in his acceptance speech fits in well with the INSPIRE workshop we held today.


Picture books are special – they're not like anything else. Sometimes I hear parents encouraging their children to read what they call proper books (books without pictures), at an earlier and earlier age. This makes me sad, as picture books are perfect for sharing, and not just with the youngest children. As a father, I understand the importance of the bond that develops through reading picture books with your child.

Geography Walk

Yesterday we went on a geography walk and found out some of the things
that have changed since 1960s things like... lamposts, window framing,
lights on the front of people's houses and many other things. We went all
the way to Saxondale Avenue and back to school. It took us 20 minutes. It
was fun . MW and SH

Today
When I came to school the second thing we did was assembly. I was very
excited because we got the attendance award (for the second time). After
that it was playtime. I just did what  I do every day... HAVE FUN!!! Then
we had maths, we went on the laptops. We  learned about money. It was really
fun (for me anyway, because I LOVE maths:-) I cant wait to find out what we
do this afternoon!!!

Today the first lesson we did was handwriting and Mr Crees didn't give me
a pen!!!! We copied a poem into our books but had to use the right words.
Then it was assembly time. We had star of the week assembly. From our
class MP won it. We also won the attendance {for the second time}. After
that it was playtime and me and my best friend, SH got more people for our
group. Then it was maths and we went on the laptops.
