Pj day!

Year 1 loved coming into school in their pyjamas on Friday and even though they were dressed ready for bed they were still enthusiastic in their learning and showed high learning zones!

To celebrate book week, we spent the afternoon listening to stories in our pyjamas! We particularly enjoyed Julia Donaldson’s Monkey Puzzle and it inspired us to do some writing. We thought we could use some of our knowledge collected in our ‘Growing’ project to write about a daffodil looking for its Mum!

Here are some photos of us listening to stories and working in groups to write:

We also had reason to celebrate in 1e today as Szymon was awarded his Determined Pin, we are very proud of you! And we won the attendance trophy for the second week in a row! Well Done 1e!

Pins in pyjamas!

It was a pleasure to give out two pins this morning to these superb learners! You truly deserve these and it has been lovely to see you both grow as individuals in our class.

 

We are now off to start our learning in our PJs!!

Ignite visit by Lees Reptiles to Foundation

This week Foundation 1 had their project Ignite with Lees Reptiles. The children got to see, and touch, a variety of reptiles including three different types of snakes and a Bosc lizard. We also saw two skunks and the children described the differences between the reptiles and the mammals.

Lee’s Reptiles will be at Kingston Tescos this Saturday (5th March) to raise money for the Henry Allen Trust so if you want to see, and hold, some of these amazing animals yourselves get yourself down there between 10am and 4pm.

Next week, Foundation 1 at Countess Way will be moving on to a new story within our project. We will by learning Dear Zoo and will be thinking about why some animals are not suitable as pets and why some are.

Our proud prize winner chooses his books!

Today we took a trip to Waterstones bookshop so that Aydan could choose some books with his £500 prize winnings! Aydan chose 3 special friends to bring with him, and along with mum and dad’s help they chose piles and piles and books for our school! The boys were careful to choose books that would appeal to all ages, as well as books that they thought the girls might enjoy! Well done again to our wonderful Aydan!
