Tiddler Stories

We have been reading stories by Julia Donaldson.
We really enjoyed the story about ‘Tiddler’ the story telling fish. Tiddler was always making up stories to explain why he was late to school. 
We pretended that we were Tiddler and have written our own stories to explain why we were late. Tiddler would be very proud of our stories.

What Our Teddy Bears Got Up To Last Night .....

Thursday night was the last night our teddy bears spent at school. We suspected they might get up to mischief and we were right. They had a party!   When we arrived at school today there were streamers and balloons all around the place and our teddies were sound asleep on the cushions.



The teddies had a party with streamers and balloons. They played games. The teddies gave mum an e-mail.     By Saul

When I got to school the teddies were having a party. Me and Saul played with them, then everyone came to room six. It was fun.  By Niko

I think that my teddy told the other teddies that it was my birthday today.  I had a surprise when I came into the classroom because there were balloons and streamers.      By Niamh

We Love Baking!!!!!!

Today Room 6 was turned into a bakery. We made some yummy Gingerbread men to share with our Room 5 and Room 7 friends.
They were delicious!
While the Gingerbread men were cooking we did some practical measuring tasks.  We used Gingerbread men pictures to measure the height, length and width of objects around our classroom.  We had to make an estimate (a guess) before we measured. 




























Just for fun - have a look at what these Gingerbread men are up to....

The Gingerbread Man

This week we have been reading the big book 'The Gingerbread Man'. Click on the picture below to read some different endings to this well know traditional tale.

Jack and the Beanstalk

We have been reading lots of fairytales this term.  Last week's big book was 'Jack and the Beanstalk'.  We wondered how the story might have changed if Jack had swapped his cow for something other than beans.  We brainstormed lots of different ideas and then began writing new stories. Click on the book below to read different endings.  We have 'Jack and the Magic Shoes', 'Jack and the Magic Carpet', 'Jack and the Magic Wand, and many more exciting twists to a well known story.Jack and the beanstalk alternate stories

All About Me Posters

We have been finding out about each other.  Our 'All About Me' posters tell our class mates a few things about ourselves:- our favourite colour, food, sport and animal.  We have found out that many of us like the same things.  We are going to create a pictograph to share our findings. Keep an eye on our blog to see what we found out.
