On Monday we had a busy but relaxed day. We wrote about our holidays, decorated hot air balloons for our porch with things we like and bright colours and we set up our class rules which are;
* We are nice to each other.
* We look after school property and each others.
* We don't talk when someone else is.
* We work hard and we don't waste time.
* We move around safely.
These are displayed in our classroom and will be reviewed regularly. Everyone signed them to say they agree to follow them.
Also this week we have started some French. Our aim is that everyone will be able to count to ten fluently soon! Some children can do this already and will be going further and helping others as well as having a go at some French maths. Speaking of maths, we had lots of fun on Friday doing maths with sweets. We discovered it was very hard to estimate the number of sweets in a pack and explored lots of ways of counting.
We ended the week with some well earned golden time, see pictures below.
Next week (on Tuesday) we will be having class elections to elect two class reps from each year group to be on the school council. On Monday the children will have chance to speak to the class about why they would make a good class rep (if they want to)...
Thanks to everyone who attended the parent's meeting on Wednesday. Hopefully you found it useful. The majority of information was on our newsletter for those who couldn't make it. One thing to note was that the lucky child who gets Patch (our class dog) will also be bringing our class hand towels home on a Friday to be washed! We hope this is acceptable to everyone.
Well done to Joshua Wilson for being awarded our first star pupil of the week! Although, everyone has been working very hard and has made a positive start to the year which is brilliant.

Sweet maths...

Golden time
