This week we completed our own propaganda posters, which all have a hidden message. The pick of the bunch can be seen on our Battle of Britain display. This display will continue to grow throughout the half term.

In English, we continued to study the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. We began…

We have had another busy week in Sunshine Class. 

We have been out for a walk in the local environment. We made a flat stanley and put it in an envelope to send home. On our walk we went to the post box to post out letters home.

We also made cakes this week ready for our phonics stay and…

Another busy week of reading tests this week and next week, we will begin with the spelling tests…consider yourselves forewarned!

The challenges this week are both anagrams. An anagram is when you mix up the letters of one thing to make another.

The week went so quickly last week, that I forgot to do my Blog and suddenly, it was this week!

Anyway, apologies for that and hope you all had a great weekend. Last week saw more children completing their reading tests for me, so well done to all of those children-you have all tried your best…

Well that's the end of another busy week. The children have been having lots of fun in class learning about class two at the zoo. The children have loved joining in with the rhyming words and learning about all the silly things the animals do.

I can't believe it's already the end of week one. We've had a very busy one and have been settling into the routines of being in Year 2 this week. 

In maths we have been looking at place value but getting creative with food to help us learn. The children are beginning to understand how many…

Week 2 has come to an end in Diamond class. We have been working on poetry this week in our English lessons. This ended with a presented poem based upon the poem Loop the loop. In maths we have been getting better at adding and subtracting numbers in our heads or choosing the best written method…

This week we have been learning about Leonardo Da Vinci and Tutankhamen. I liked learning about the ancient Egyptian topic with Mr Bamber (the best teacher ever). I think he is the funniest teacher in the world, he does funny voices and accents and always makes us smile. 

The star of the week…

That’s the second week done and it’s been fun, fun, fun all the way.

With three different sport’s games going on around school each dinner time, it’s been a challenge to keep up with what’s going on. Luckily there are a number of junior children that want to help out with the refereeing.

Sunshine Class have had a wonderful week settling into life at Pool House School. 

They have been exploring the different areas in our classroom, learning the school rules, making friends, and have began to learn our phase 2 phonics sounds.

Thank you to everyone who completed their leaf…

This week was our first week in year 6 back on the curriculum after last weeks beginning of year assessments. We have made a really positive start to the year and have started discussing the eruption of Mount Vesuvius and what happened to Pompeii. We wrote a diary entry at the end of the week from…

What a great day we've had today in school. Every class has had the opportunity to play instruments today.

Rainbow class tried really hard to keep the pulse of the music and to recognise which sounds were short and which were long. They also learnt a new song and Esther sung it beautifully by…
