The voice of an angel!

I can't wait to see Woodpeckers and Hedgehogs Christmas play next week because apparently Nancy and Tayler sing beautifully in it.  They have been trying hard to learn the words of the songs and are performing them fantastically.  I think we are all in for a treat!

What a difference!

Here is our new shape master!  In just two weeks, Bailee has learned to recognise eleven 2-D shapes, and can read and write their names, too.  He is very proud of his hard work and what he has achieved - and so are we!  Well done, Bailee!

Life during the Blitz

 
Charlie has amazed us all with his fantastic writing about the Blitz.  Nor only has he remembered lots of details about what it would have been like in an air raid, he has listened really carefully for the sounds in the words he wants to write so that he can read what he has written - all by himself!  You superstar, Charlie!

WWII interview

In this script for an interview, Ollie has shown how much he has learned about women being employed during World War II.  Bob Booty asked Lexi, the worker in the gun factory, some really sensible questions to find out about her life.  Great work, Ollie!

Take cover!

What fantastic story writers we have here!  Sam, Matthew, Tobi, Ellie and Autumn have used some amazing vocabulary choices, including adjectives and adverbs to create suspense in their gripping Blitz stories.  Super writing, folks!

Written BEAUTIFULLY!

Not only has Ruby used her planning sheet carefully to write a detailed account of a night during the Blitz, she has also used some fabulous adverbs.  This is a really impressive piece of descriptive work, missus!  Well done you!

Double superstar!

Joshua has been working very hard at school and at home.  We are really pleased that he knows his colours, his beautiful colouring and his stripes, and at home he has been helping Dad to make yummy burgers and chips!  What a superstar you are, Josh!

Lost!

We have lost a lot of aliens and we are hoping you will be able to help us find them.  Coco, Rhys, Archie, Lily, Lewis, Luke, Harry, Blossom, Preston, Logan, Luke and Ethan have each made a poster to describe their missing alien using verbs to give you clues about where you might find them.  Well done, people!

Stick Man

Leo is very proud of his work, and so are we!  He has listened carefully to the story of Stick Man's adventures, and then listened carefully to the sounds he heard in the labels he wanted to write.  How amazing is he that he can write the first letter of each word?  What a superstar!

The best week of my life!

These information-packed diaries show how much Travis, James, Josh and Oscar enjoyed their week at Little Canada on the Isle of Wight.  They are beautifully presented pieces of work and reflect the huge amount of time and effort these boys put into them. Super, lads!

Wartime London

It took two lessons and lots of time and patience to produce these wartime silhouettes of London in wartime.  Luke, Lexi, Chloe and Sam are rightfully proud of the fantastic effect effects they have created in these works of art.  Superb art, folks!

Breaking news ...

Meet our four newest roving reporters!  Marcy, Darcie, Megan and Gracie's iMovie interviews with Neville Chamberlain and Adolf Hitler are carefully and cleverly edited so that you think you really are watching the BBC.  Check out their report on their class blog!  Great work, girls!

Anderson shelters

This is a beautiful representation of all that these ladies have been learning about life in wartime.  They used their original ideas and items from home to create this amazing model that they can talk about in great detail.  Fab work, Chloe and Louise!

A week to remember ...

 
Sam, Chloe and Ocean really enjoyed their week at Little Canada and it shows in these incredibly detailed diaries that they have written about their week.  They are beautifully presented and will be lovely souvenirs to keep for many years to come.  Well done!
