Happy New Year!

What a wonderful start to the new year we've had in Cheetahs class!  Everyone was so cheerful & genuinely happy to see all of their friends again- they've still got me smiling!

A big well done to Karla & Ebony who got our first lucky dips of 2017 for their outstanding behaviour and work ethic to kick off the new year.  q:0)

The children are enjoying the new layout of desks in our classroom and especially our new Cheetahs Reading Den!  It looks very cosy indeed!  Do bring in books, magazines, comics- anything from home that you would like to enjoy reading in our ERIC time (Everybody Reading In Class)!

In English we are writing Thank You letters to a family member, friend or Santa to show appreciation for the gifts they received for Christmas as well as to thank people for the special time they've shared over the holiday.  We'll be writing them up neatly next week.

In Maths we have been busy measuring in centimetres and metres using rulers and metre sticks and had some fun doing special measuring tasks at various stations today!  Our farthest standing jump distances went to Jack in first place, one centimetre behind was Ebony, and yet another mere centimetre behind was Connor!

Cheetahs and Panthers are now working in small groups on a Spanish script that they will prepare, practise & perfect, so hopefully we'll have a few educational skits to enjoy in upcoming achievement assemblies later this half term!

Best of luck to our final team of DT Egg Droppers this month!  I'm really excited to see how these unique ideas work out!


Thank you to all of the children for such a positive, fantastic start to 2017!
