Date: 17th Nov 2022 @ 12:25pm
'Stig of the Dump' by Clive King.
Today we looked at the characterisation and relationship between four main characters within the text- Stig, Barney, Lou and the Grandmother.
In groups of four, the children had to choose one of these characters and tried to think as them (what would they say, think, do, how would they sit and react etc.)
The children then got into role and acted out the conversation between characters.
Well done Y3, excellent.

Yr6 Goodnight Mr. Tom, by Mr Glen
Date: 16th Nov 2022 @ 3:28pm
"Goodnight Mr Tom" by Michelle Magorian.
Today we started to look at the characterisation and relationship between four main characters; William, Zach, Mr Oakley and Mrs. Beech. In small groups, the children mind mapped what they knew about each character and tried to empathize with them.
As a group, we then hot seated the characters and asked the open questions relating to the character in the 'hot seat'.
We also read through and discussed a playscript which had been written based on our text. The children were given 3 minutes to prepare a short piece of drama, using the stage directions in the script. The children then performed their section to the class. Collectively, we reviewed the performance using WWW (What went well?) and EBI (Even better if?).
Well done Year 6

Yr1 Percy the Park Keeper, by Mr Glen
Date: 15th Nov 2022 @ 3:29pm
Year One have been exploring the book ''After the Storm” by Nick Butterworth. Over the last few sessions, we have looked at the park and what you might find there. We discussed the damage the wind in the story may have caused and the children acted out the jobs that Percy would have to complete in order to restore the park.
We discussed how the animals might have felt after their homes had been destroyed and made a list of emotion words to include within our writing back in class.
We also looked at the main character- Percy. We used nouns and adjectives to describe what he looked like and what his personality was like.
Each group had to label an image of Percy. Firstly, they wrote nouns like; hat, coat, boots, wellies etc. The children then added adjectives such as flat (cap/hat), thick (jacket), warm (coat), smelly (wellies). We also played the game “What am I? An adjective or noun?” to reinforce the ideas that we had been looking at.
As part of our non-fiction topic, we looked at some facts about hedgehogs and where they get their name from.
Yr3 and 4 Lunchtime Choir, by Mr Glen
Date: 15th Nov 2022 @ 2:19pm
Today in choir we continued to learn our Christmas songs. Yr3 and 4 sang “Jingle bells” really well, adding in the extra verses.
Using a colour reference chart, we learnt added in bells to accompany our singing. I was amazed at how quickly the children picked it up and in no time were able to sing and play in time with each other.
Absolutely brilliant. Next week we are looking at “Silent Night” and “Away in the Manger”.
