Mirror, mirror!

Harley didn't think his symmetrical self-portrait was very good until he had finished it.  He looked closely at the details in the picture he was given of half of his face, and copied it carefully to draw his whole head.  This is a lovely piece of work, Harley!

Scientific superstar!

 
Sam has shown what a scientific genius he is.  In this table he has not only recorded his predictions for what might happen in different circuits, but he has given detailed reasons using scientific language.  I am very impressed, Sam.  Well done you!

Happy Christmas!

Roxy's mum is going to be delighted with the beautiful Christmas card Roxy has made for her.  She listened carefully for all the sounds in the words she wanted to write, and made the card all by herself.  What a lovely thing to do!

Once upon a World War ...

We are super-impressed by Max's story-telling!  He has used some beautifully descriptive narrative language to describe and develop the outline of a World War II story.  What a gripping story, Max!

The Menorah


Here are two people who have been listening very carefully to the story about the Jewish Menorah.  Rhys and Ebony have written very detailed explanations about the battle between the Greeks and the Maccabeans and can talk about what happened.   Well done, folks!

More and more!

Over the last two weeks, Riley has been practising and practising recognising, reading and writing the names of 2-D shapes.  Before he knew three, and now he knows an amazing ELEVEN!!  Great work, superstar!

The Tiger Who Came to Tea


Not only did these people have a wonderful time at the theatre watching 'The Tiger Who Came to Tea', but they have also written about their visit, listening really carefully for all the sounds in the words they wanted to write.  Super listening and super writing - well done folks!
