Happy Easter!
It's been a short but busy half term - the children are ready for a break!
The children have done a great job with their Mantle of the Expert story this half term. It started with creating medieavel village and becoming serfs, working the land, and it ended this week by finally building a castle for Queen Matilda and being knighted by her.
Below you can see photos the children's castle, complete with their individual coats of arms on flags. We talked about the symbolism of the different animals and colours, so the children took their time designing their flags to represent themselves.
Aside from that, the children completed an independent writing task and some reading assessments this week, and got ready to perform in church and for Mrs Barnes. If they haven't already sung you the Bunny Hokey Cokey, see if they would like to - it's good! We used this YouTube backing track but the words are all about a bunny.
Reading books:
I haven't sent home our group reading books as I wanted to sort them out over the holidays. Instead, your children have two different books they have chosen to keep them going. I have collected all Badger books in.
Spellings:
I've updated your children's spelling cards, or photocopied their school ones if their cards weren't in their bags. Please continue to practise these words a few at a time.
I think that's everything for now.
Have a good couple of weeks!
From
Mrs Simpson
