After reading with Nursery we joined in with the BBC Live World Book Day lesson.

In class we have made character top trumps which we can play at wet playtimes. We have also prepared some character speeches. Tomorrow we will take part in the Ultimate Character Champion Battle. We will practise our oracy skills to deliver our speeches to the class. We will have a panel of year 5 judges who will choose out ultimate champion. I can't wait to see who wins.

Happy World Book Day

, , , , ,

We have started World Book Day with a very cool assembly today. Year 6 shared a performance poem which could be read both ways called a palindrome. This had a strong message about refugees. Then Mrs Lewis shared her favourite story 'The wonky donkey' rapped by MC Grammar. We really enjoyed this so if you want to learn any more songs being sang by MC Grammar have a look on the internet. Then Miss Lewis shared a poem she has created all about our fabulous school.

We were impressed to find out that Ash has 25 world records for his freestyle football skills and also has an award for having over 100,000 subscribers on YouTube. He said the main things for becoming a great freestyle footballer are determination, perseverance, passion and honesty - some of our sporting values!
