Week Commencing 10.1.2010 Next week is Book Week and we have
lots of exciting things happening such as a
Rapping Poet, Story Telling, The Bearwood Big Book
and the creation of our giant book cover. On Wednesday
afternoon we are having our story afternoon. In a bag bring a
costume for a character from your favourite book. Remember
don’t tell anyone because we want to guess the story your character
comes from. As you have seen today Miss Thomas’ character has a
swag bag. Who do you think I am coming as? This weekend can
you find out about three different authors? They could be
authors that you like or challenge yourself to find
out about a new author. For Friday can you bring in your favourite
book to share with the class? Think about why is it your favourite.
Can you write down three reasons? Can you find 5 books that you
like to read? Go to the ‘Waterstones’ website to look at some
children’s books. Can you write the name 5 of the books you would
like to read and bring it into school on Tuesday? This is
part of our challenge to decide as a year group which
new books we would like in our book corner. http://www.waterstones.com/waterstonesweb/
Finally, could we ask that all children have thier PE kit in
school throughout the week.

Talk Homework

Mrs Daniels and Miss Smith thought your flapjacks tasted amazing!

Tomorrow we would you like you to write the instructions for how to make them for us.

Talk to somebody at home about how you made the  flapjacks.

What did you do first? Then what next? Make sure you can remember everything in the right order!

No it’s not New York, London or Paris…. its Bearwood Primary. Today we turned our classroom into a catwalk. We modelled our favourite items of clothing and explained the reason for that item being their favourite. As you can some children produced some great poses and strutted their stuff well!

Once the catwalk show had concluded we explore the labels in our favorite items of clothing to see which fabrics they were made from.
