week ending 19th June 2015

This week we have been revisiting poetry and looking at nonsense rhymes. The children have learnt the poem the Ning Nang Nong and identified the rhyming pairs in it. They then had a go at creating their own poem using rhyming pairs of real and nonsense words. In maths we have been measuring ourselves and other objects using rulers and metre sticks. The children have also used their knowledge of measurement to solve problems, for example, which books will fit on this shelf? We have begun our concert practises for next week and these have been taking place during the afternoons. The children have worked hard learning their songs and they are very excited about performing these for you next week. Miss Tovell's class concert will be on Wednesday 24th June and Mrs Elli's class concert on Thursday 25th June - we look forward to seeing you there. This Friday is our whole school trip to London and we are delighted that so many of the children are able to join us. Please can you reread the letter confirming final arrangements and let us know if your child needs any medication on the day. We are sure that the children will have lots of stories to tell you about their day when they return.
