Little Angels

Buddy’s Rainforest Rescue by Ellie Jackson and Laura Callwood has been our focus this week, discovering information about rivers, evolution, habitats and deforestation. The children have been recycling, creating models out of recyclable materials, building their own homes and making rice cake owls. What a busy week of learning!

Reminders

Fallow Class

In Fallow class we have been learning our new class text ‘Tell Me a Dragon’ by Jackie Morris which has some lovely vocabulary and illustrations. Next week we are going to be writing about our own dragons. We have been learning about some of the tricky grammar such as similes and adverbials. In Art we have been learning how to use watercolours like Jackie Morris and have been designing our own dragons!
