This half term our topic is 'The Spirit of Christmas' which is all about the Christian story of Christmas and the celebrations involved. We will of course be practising our Christmas nativity play which is called 'Stable by Starlight'. We will provide all the costumes for you so there is no need to get the sewing machines out just yet!
During the next few weeks, the children will be continuing their 'Read, Write, Inc' sessions and performing lots of practical Christmas mathematics activities both inside and outside the classroom. During our topic work we will be performing role plays outside in the forest acting out the nativity story. We will be thinking about the needs of our animals at school over the winter months and making lots of environmental Christmas decorations with natural materials.
Our children are all looking forward to the Children in Need ramble on Friday and we hope to see many of you there too.
We often have visits from our buddies and other children throughout the school. Today, one of our year four children visited us to read a story at home time. What a treat!
