Good afternoon everyone! Happy New Year!
Before I tell you all about our first week back, can I say an enormous thank you for all the gorgeous Christmas cards and wonderful gifts you gave Miss Hewitt and myself at the end of term. You totally spoilt us both and really shouldn't. We both absolutely lovely teaching your children and really don't expect any gifts at all; you are so kind, thank you so very much.
This week the children have been absolutely amazing as always and have worked incredibly hard. I can't believe how much marking I have given myself!!!
We have been working hard on accurately punctuating speech and we have been so impressed with how well the children have been applying this to their writing. It will be very useful as the children begin to write about 'The Secret Garden'! Mary and Dickon certainly have many conversations!
In maths, we have been concentrating on 'time'; practising reading the time to the nearest 5 mins and then to the nearest minute on analogue clocks. We've looked at digital clocks too; converting analogue to digital and vice versa. Today we have started looking at converting 12 hour clocks to 24 hours clocks too. We'll be focusing on this next week so any practise would be good!
The children thoroughly enjoyed their first golf lesson with our professional golf coach this week. Rochelle Morris, a very successful professional golfer, will be teaching golf lessons over the next 6 weeks; very exciting!
Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!
See you on Monday,
Mrs Matthews and Miss Hewitt x
