Class 1 I liked playing in the frost, it was so crunchy. Holme Head House, upstairs we did drawing. I liked Holme Head House because upstairs we could do clay and modelling. I liked climbing the trees. I liked making the reindeer food. I liked going on the trip, I liked playing on the tree. I liked climbing on the trees and painting upstairs and playing with the dinosaurs. Playing with the Lego, I made a Lego man. I liked playing with the big dinosaurs and my friends.

Class 2 The pantomime was the highlight in class two this week with the children sharing the following favourite parts:

I loved the part when Pinocchio sang loads of songs. I liked it when the blue fairy came out. When we saw his underpants. It was funny when he had no clothes on! I liked it when he was singing different songs, my favourite song was I'm still standing.

When his head was popped out of the big red balloon. When Dani sang the songs. The big balloon bit. I liked the cream cake bit best, they made a big mess! When the balloon popped! The end bit when Pinocchio rode on his unicycle.

Class 3 We have enjoyed writing out our RSPCA letter about the Twits.

Year 3 have done exchange in subtraction and Year 4 have done x, 6 & 9 times tables in maths. In PE we did a dance to One Direction and dressed up for it. We really liked the Panto about Pinocchio. We loved this week, the play is progressing and we were excited about it.

Class 4 I have enjoyed learning about how the heart works in Science and carrying out an exercise experiment. We measured our resting pulse then checked it after 2 minutes. We found that our heart rate had increased and it took 5 minutes to get back to normal resting heart rate.

I have enjoyed learning fractions in maths because I like maths and understand it.

I have enjoyed singing our songs for our production. We have enjoyed practising new dances this week, dancing is my favourite.

I have enjoyed creating an advert for a good friend in PSHE, thinking about the qualities I look for in a good friend.

I have enjoyed reading lots and reaching my reading target.

Class 1 have had a very productive week. We are well underway with our rehearsals for the Nativity and are enjoying spending time with Class Two. Nursery have been reading 'Hippo has a Hat' and have created some great hat designs. Reception's new book is 'The Happy Hedgehog Band' - a very noisy story! Reception have been working very hard to learn their tricky words, we are very impressed - they really are tricky!

Nursery are becoming subitising superstars and have been representing totals in different ways (circles, lines, cats!), while Reception have been learning all about shapes and beginning to use numerals in their recording.

Class 1 have had a fantastic week, here are some of the children's highlights:

"playing with my friends", "singing the Christmas songs for the Nativity", "painting a picture of the Gruffalo", "making my number 5s", "eating my dinner, my pudding was the best", "dancing with CDA", "showing my friends my show and tell and answering all their questions", "decorating my Pudsey biscuit".

Class 1 Our stories of the week have been 'The Leaf Thief' and 'Wow! said the Owl". The children have loved retelling the stories, and made some fantastic posters with brilliant writing and pictures. In maths we have been looking at composition - the whole and the parts that make up the whole. We enjoyed planning, making then eating fruit kebabs, identifying the whole and the different parts. We have also been making our own 2D shapes and exploring printing to make circle pictures. In our SCARF sessions we have been talking about what makes us the same, what makes us different, and why it's a good thing that we are all different. This has linked nicely to our work in science where we have been sharing baby photos and talking about how we are different now to when we were babies.

Class I loved doing the big jumps with Kim. We made story maps of the ‘Little Red Hen’. I liked doing the potato printing. I liked doing drawing with Tabs. I loved Forest School this week. I like singing our harvest songs. I liked building with my friends and making roads and carparks. I liked reading books with my friends.

Class 2 We liked walking to the woods, the seesaw at the woods, playing in the trees, the hot chocolate, the seesaw, the climbing tree, chatting by the fire, the seesaw is so much fun,  talking around the fire, climbing up the climbing tree, making our dinner at the woods, the s’mores were yummy, the hot chocolate, climbing the climbing tree, bouncing on the seesaw,  the woods is so much fun! Also, Golden time, RE week with Rachel and Esther, our 'Deborah' drama, Gymnastics with Kym, P.E. and Mrs Potts’ lunches.

Class 1“Forest School was really good, we did lots of climbing”.

“I loved making a giant house with my friends. It was good for when it rained”.

“We made a big rainbow dog together”.

“I liked reading my new book, I love the cats in Mrs McTats houseful of cats”.

“I love our stick insects, they’re getting bigger”.

“I liked looking for our 1, 2, 3 and 4 in maths”.

“I liked drawing with my friends, I drew me and my family”.

Class This week we have been working hard with our phonics – we are doing really well and remembering lots of new phonemes and graphemes. At Forest School on Wednesday, we enjoyed making houses for some special visitors. We also made s’mores and gathered leaves, acorns and conkers. We had a walk around the village, noticing familiar places and spotting our friend’s houses. In SCARF we have been talking about feelings – what things make us happy, what can make us feel frustrated or sad, and what can do to make ourselves feel happy again. In our gymnastics session we focused on different kinds of jumping – Kym was very impressed! Well done, Class One, another fantastic week.

Class 1 have had a fantastic week. We all enjoyed our visit from Andy Tooze on Monday, listening to poetry and learning some actions to perform to the rest of school. In Reception, we have been making story maps and performing ‘The Gruffalo’, continuing with our phonics, and carrying out surveys of what fruit people like. In nursery we have been reading the 'You Choose' books, sharing our ideas and listening to our friends. In art, we are experimenting with printing, and have made some great pictures. Well done everyone, a busy week.
