Still busy!!!!!!




Well, what an exciting day!

A huge "well done" to all of you who performed, greeted or spoke to HRH Prince Charles today. You were charming, polite, mature and really were good ambassadors for the school. I think he was very impressed with all of you! You can see photos and a video clip on the Dorset Evening Echo website - a true memory to treasure!

Thank you to Mr. Ray who came in last Friday to teach us more about WW2 and set us a very entertaining quiz! This showed how much you have learned - well done!

This week we are continuing our learning about journalistic writing and features of a newspaper. Today our grammar focus was understanding complex sentences - main clause and subordinate clause using "Gimme 5" to help! Ask your child about the "crab family" - Suzy and baby Alan (and the bit of fish hanging from his claw)!!!!!!!!!!!
In numeracy this week we are carrying out investigations and problem solving. Keep learning your x tables - we will be resuming those as normal this week!
In guided reading we are completing our reading comprehensions - it would be good if you could focus on inference skills when you are listening to your child read.
Clarinet is back to normal this week.

Don't forget that auditions for the Christmas play - Ebeneezer are being held this week so make sure you have prepared either a song (if you are auditioning for the singing) or a passage, poem or drama if you are going for an acting role!

See you all tomorrow,

Mrs. Johnson
