Christmas Play

Our Christmas Play will have a circus theme this year. We are doing an adaptation of The Greatest Showman. If you have any circus costumes that you could lend us, that would be great but please DO NOT spend any money. Please have your child practice the following song at home whenever possible.

A Million Dreams

Only the first 1.30 mins of the song below.


Join The Circus

​Only the first 1.50 mins of the song below.


Come Follow The Band

Only the first 1.55 mins


Dictation

The children are getting really good at their dictation. This activity requires them to listen to me call out a sentence. They then have to recall all the letter rules I taught them to segment out the different letters in spell a words (throw in a few tricky words here!). At the same time, they also have to recall how to write these letters in written text. That's before we think about the sentence structure rules which require them to remember to leave a space between words, capital letter at the start of the sentence and full stop at the end!

Not as easy as you would think right!?

So credit to the children for working so hard in school. After  Christmas we will be changing the homework around a little and dictation will be part of their home practice, but feel free to give it a go whenever you get a chance!  

Science Week

Mr Mulcahy joined us for some super experiments to celebrate Science Week!The children were engrossed in the experiments as you can see in the video below. 
Hope you're enjoying the weekend! Only Three school weeks to CHRISTMAS! ??

Kind Regards,

Ms Murray
