The rain poured during our PE session this afternoon but the children showed their resilience and determination, moved all the tables around and got active with their yoga session in the classroom. It was great fun – well done class five!

We started our morning with some clues as to who our next champion was going to be – can you guess?
We began with some group reading to see what we could find out about him. We then used the ChromeBooks to research further and add all of our findings to our graffiti wall.
Bonjour, Shikamoo, Dzień dobry, Hello …
Class 5 took part in a zoom call today with Mayowa Precious Agbabiaka, who is helping children learn more about Black History Month. She has written a book called ‘There’s rice at home’ and read it aloud to the children. She told us that she has written the book in 13 languages. We really enjoyed trying to say hello in all the different languages – I wonder how many different ways you can say hello?
Another week, another champion
The children enjoyed conducting their own research to discover some facts about this inspirational man.

Investigating Pumpkins…
How can we open them? Shall we smash them? 
So many seeds… 
I’m strong enough to open it… 
It’s heavy… 
Nearly inside both now! 
Yes we did it! Look at all of the seeds! 
It’s yucky … but I want another go! 
I’m not sure whether I like it … but I love investigating! 
Seeds… there are LOADS! 
This one is slimy… 
Wow! Can I have a turn? 
It’s heavy … and it smells funny! 
I am sooooo strong! 
No seeds left in this bit! 
It smells funny … and it feels a bit funny too! 
I like this … I like seeing inside! 
Counting… 
Can I play here all day – I love investigating pumpkins! 
Digging deep to pull out the stringy bits! 
I emptied it!
Bubbles everywhere …
Our year two playtime was filled with bubbles and laughter today – just perfect!
#Take10ToRead
We loved joining in this morning with the #Take10ToRead challenge. Firstly we listened to Tom Percival share an extract from his new book, he then showed the children how to show emotions in their drawings. Finally we all took ten minutes to enjoy a book! What a great morning!
#Take10ToRead
Class Five absolutely loved joining in with the #Take10ToRead challenge. They started by hearing Tom Percival share an extract from his new book (which we have already ordered to add to our classroom collection!) and show the children how to show emotions through their drawing.
We then took ten minutes to enjoy a book – what a treat!
How can we make a difference?
Class Five have yet again blown me away with their compassion and maturity towards their expedition this week.
We gave continued to engage with our core text – Let The Children March. We have thought really carefully about how the children might have felt, what they were thinking, what they could hear and see as they were preparing to march. We are then going to use our anchor chart to create some diary entries – I’m looking forward to blogging these next week already!
During our Thoughtful Thursday crew session we have thought about how we can make a difference, just like the children in our book.
I am so proud of the ideas and plans the children have began to make – our world is going to be a better place because of the differences they are already making. What do you think?
