Pupils have finished the Rama and Sita story and have been, answering comprehension questions, learning lots of new vocabulary ( such as: returned, reunited, astonished, imprisoned etc.) and phrases ( such as: fly like the wind, the speed of light etc.). They have also been rewriting it in their own words. Excellent concentration from all. (Sorry not many photos, we were busy learning!!)

This week Robin class went out and did litter picking around the school. The children enjoyed it so much they asked if they could do it again the following day and the next school year. It would be a nice idea to do it over the summer holidays in your local community.

Today the chicks have gone to live in a farm, they are ready for the freedom as they have started growing feathers and trying to jump ready to fly. The children really enjoyed watching them growing and changing this week (they grew really quickly) and we have learnt a lot about how chickens develop. Some of the chicks really relaxed when being held by calm children.

We have had eggs in an incubator in school and 9 chicks have hatched. Today the children got a chance to go and see them. They all enjoyed watching them and some enjoyed holding them. In computing the children used their ICT skills to create stop frame animations of chicks hatching from eggs. (Reposting as I forgot the photos)
