St John Visit
This week we had Rachel from St John visit our school. She taught us how to recognise when a situation is dangerous and what we could do to make them safe. We also looked at a range of things to see if they were safe or unsafe to eat or drink.

He told us a great story about Maui's discovery of fire.
He also showed us some pictures and we had to discuss whether it looked like a safe or unsafe environment.
We cant wait to learn more with him next week!

Architects for the day
We read a book called Puffin the Architect by Kimberly Andrews and really wanted to try out being architects ourselves. We created our own dream home and wrote about what we added to them.

Our Play - The Hole in the King's Sock
We have been reading the book The Hole in the King's Sock as our shared reading book. For our activity, we decided to retell the story by acting it out.
We chose our characters, wrote the script and practised lots and lots.
We were very excited to share our play in assembly on Friday and thought it would be nice to share it on our blog as well.
Enjoy our retelling of The Hole in the King's Sock by Dot Meharry.

Flower Patterns
In maths, we have been learning about patterns. Yesterday we made some flowers with an alternating pattern using 2 different colours.
We have put our beautiful flowers in the window so that they can be seen from the inside and the outside of the classroom.
