Hello Earl’s Hill. I hope that you are all well and get to enjoy some of the lovely weather today.

I would like you to join in with Mrs Thompstone’s virtual Phonics session, focusing on Set 1 sounds. You can find this by visiting our Reading section of the school website. You may like to listen to a story in our virtual library whilst you are there.

There is a Powerpoint of the story on our class page from yesterday if you would like to take another look.

Today I would like you to sequence ( put in order) the main parts of the story. You could draw a picture for each of the important parts of the story and lay them out in order.

These illustrations from the story might help you:

Now try to write a sentence to match each picture. Sound out the words carefully (use ‘Fred Fingers’ to help).

English

Last week, you all created a fantastic plan for your own story about an injured animal. I would like you to create a story mountain at home to help you to write this story. Think about the story mountains we talked about in class. Here is an example to help you:

Think carefully about the sections in your story. Remember that a really good opening needs to set the scene so introduce your character and the setting. Here is a WAGOLL (What a good one looks like). Look at the features which have been coloured or underlined.

Can you spot different sentence starts, powerful verbs and interesting adjectives?

R.E.

We have been focusing on the Easter Story, last week in class we talked about Palm Sunday and created a piece of artwork based on the scene in Jerusalem.

Your artwork will be the scene on a postcard. I would like you to write the postcard. Imagine you are in Jerusalem, perhaps you climbed a tree to get a better view of Jesus on the Donkey. Describe what you might have seen, heard or felt.

 

Finally, if you have any questions or need any support please ask an adult to contact me on ClassDojo or on our Class email.

I can’t wait to see you all again soon!

Spellings

The children have brought home a spelling activity booklet this week to make sure that they have the opportunity to practise the words they most commonly use in their writing.

Pirates in Caradoc!

We have had another wonderful week in Caradoc, the children have been working extremely hard. We all thoroughly enjoyed our Pirate day to finish off our work based on our school text ‘ The Pirates Next Door’ by Jonny Duddle. The costumes were fantastic and what better way to end the day than a treasure hunt. I would also like to say well done to those children who earned prizes for their reading.
congratulations to Jamie Jones who was a very well deserved Star of the week. Our PE lessons are on a Wednesday and Thursday afternoon, your child can wear their PE kit to school on those days. Thank you again for al of your support. Have a lovely weekend.

Here are just a few photographs from our week:

Our first week back together in Caradoc

I would like to say how immensely proud I am of all of the children in Caradoc class as they have returned this week. It has been wonderful to see all of the children back in class, looking so smart and eager to get on with all of the exciting activities we had planned. We have been focusing on the Bible story Jonah and the Whale and completing lots of work based on this. We have continued with our whole class text focus in English and have been enjoying reading all about the Pirates Next Door by Jonny Duddle who we were lucky to see as part of our author roadshow last week. Her are a few photographs from our week:
