Round up of Week 7

Hi Everyone,

Congratulations to Matilda for being a great Leader at Friday's school assembly and also to Noah, Ethan and Dylan for how well they read their prayers! Thank-you to their parents who helped them with their practice, it was noticeable. 

I said last week that I would include some samples of the poetry we are working on at present.

Marsh mellows look like white snow.

Marsh mellows feel like a squishy ball.

 Marsh mellows tastes like raspberries.

This week I will not send home Instructional readers!! The daily programme will be the same but I will be doing Shared books. As you know the children are tired and I will not be doing them,or you and the all the lovely new books a favour by trying to teach to them. 

Now is a great time to look out for any extra reading books you might have at home and return them to school. 

The rest of the week is pretty normal--we are starting 'Christmas Craft' on Monday and then on Wednesday the class will move on a daily basis around each Rutherford class room and experience making a card or decoration.  

Regards,

Mary
