This week we will be delving into our Stone Age topic and looking at the story of the Stone Age boy. We will be thinking about what life would have been like and how ou4lives compare.
On Wednesday we have a special visitor in our Forest School session. Jo from Dorset Wool will be working with us and teaching use about natural dyes. I will try and blog some pictures of this! (I’m very excited about the workshop!)
Last week the children all did a AR star reading test. Everyone does this every half term. It is a series of comprehension questions, from this they will get their AR number which they can take out books from the library. Your child’s number may be slightly lower at the beginning of the term as they are settling back in to answering questions about the texts they have just read. I have said that if they get 100% in 4 quizzes then I will move them up. Every book that is read and if the children have got 80% or more in the quiz then they will receive a quaffle for their special pouch. It’s great to see so many of these already!! For the children that are reading longer books then their AR points are more of a focus. With this in mind, for every 50 points they get they will receive a golden snitch. We encourage reading in whether it’s being read to or listening to stories every day.
Any questions please do ask.
