Hello everyone!
It’s been such great first week of term! We have enjoyed exploring the new classroom and getting to know each other.
We started with decorating the classroom with our ‘All About Me’ flowers. They look so beautiful on our windows and it was great to learn all about each other! We also got to do many different backpack activities- we especially loved the calming breathing exercises and the connection games. I hope we can do many more in the next few weeks. It was fun to make our classroom agreement and understand that everyone learns in different ways too!
We started place value in our maths learning and the children did some amazing work! I was so impressed by their maths knowledge and their eagerness to solve the questions. We will continue with place value next week- I hope this amazing work continues!
In English, we started learning about the Space Race! It’s a difficult topic with a lot of new vocabulary, but we learnt so many new facts and can even use words such as perilous now! I wonder if we can still remember all these facts by next week…
In IPC, there was a mysterious present on the balcony…. but we couldn’t unlock the door without figuring out the code! We worked together as a team, helping each other and solving puzzles with great enthusiasm and teamwork. When we finally opened the door, we discovered some bubble blowers! So we had great fun blowing bubbles and trying to make the biggest bubble.
I hope the children all enjoyed their week as much as I did! I sent homework today- please return it by next Friday along with their reading books.
It’s been really lovely to get to know all the children and I’m really looking forward to next week! I hope I can see you all at the meeting on Wednesday at 10:45.
Have an amazing weekend!
