This term we have been developing our football skills and we enjoyed playing our team games and football matches in PE.

Today we were very lucky to receive a visit from Mr West, our local Baptist Minister. He came to speak to us about harvest time and also to speak about the local heroes who work at the food bank in Askern. It made us think about all of the things that we are grateful and thankful for.

We had a great morning and thank Mr West for spending time with us.

A lovely start to our day in Year One, sharing our love of books. Harper said reading this morning has made her “feel happy”, Teddi said his book was “exciting” and Quinn said reading with her friend made her feel “calm”.

We have had a wonderful time this week meeting our crew buddies from Year 6. They visited our class and read us a lovely story. Today we have came into their classroom to share some yummy biscuits with them.

We have had a wonderful day celebrating our beautiful work. This week we have been very busy playing our phonics screening games, reading alien words and lots of tricky words. We all did a fantastic job! Today we have had a party with our aliens enjoying music, dancing and cooling down in a shade.

We love reading and sharing stories with our friends. Every morning we take turns to read a book in front of our class. We are very kind and we praise children for trying their best, supporting each other and reading with enthusiasm. We love our class reading crew!

We had lots of fun counting forwards and backwards in 2s, 5s and 10s. We used different objects to make groups and used some mathematical language to describe our thinking. We loved writing in our class and in our choosing time some children created some lovely stories.
