Posting to the gingerbread man 💌

In today’s writing lesson we read where the postman delivered his christmas mail to next, it was to a red tin house that was tiny. It belonged to a gingerbread man. We created our own gingerbread men and then looked at the book that the postman delivered him. We loved reading the story that the postman had posted and then enjoyed a cup of tea and mini mince pie.

Another busy day as postman in Crew Marsh and luckily it was our last.

UKS2 carol concert

What a lovely morning it was singing Christmas songs with our peers to our parents, carers and loved ones. We really enjoyed our carol concert and came back into crews in such high spirits. Thank you to everyone that joined us this morning and well done to everyone in year 5 and 6 for their great efforts. We are all now feeling very festive 🙂

Celebrating Shabbat

Today, Y2 have been exploring how and why Jewish people celebrate Shabbat. We discovered that Shabbat is the Jewish Day of Rest. Shabbat happens each week from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday. During Shabbat, Jewish people remember the story of creation from the Torah. Jews have a lot of jobs to do on the Friday evening to prepare for Shabbat.

The jollypostman posting to baby bear

Today in Y1 we started our christmas writing by reading the christmas jollypostman. He firstly delivered a christmas card to baby bear at the three bears house, we therefore decorated our own card for baby bear and then delivered it to their house. We noticed Mummy bear decorating a christmas tree and enjoyed some warm, delicious porridge.

Christmas writing continues in MI

Today we wrote our second plot point continuing our Christmas setting description. We have all really loved this piece of writing where we have tried hard to use expanded noun phrases, similes, conjunctions and adverbials across both plot point one and plot point two. Great work MI 🙂

Caring crew in MI- Respectful relationships

Today in our caring crew we discussed the importance of respectful relationships. We thought about times where others may have not shown respect for us personally and how this made us feel. We then watched a clip all around respect. We stopped the clip at different points and discussed what was happening. We were really shocked with how the clip ended and it really made us think about what had actually happened. We discussed what we would do if we saw things happening in the clip and then thought about times where we had seen others not showing respect. It was great to just voice our ideas and listen to the stories of others. In our debrief we went back to our guiding question of ‘Why should I respect other people?’ we discussed this again, offering our thoughts and opinions. A great crew session 🙂
