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.

In our experience lesson we each made a mouse so we could put it in our shoe for their new house just like in the story The Smartest Giant in town. We loved reading this book again and found it funny that George the giant had to hop away because he has given one of his shoes.

In today’s experience lesson we each made our own tin foil boat to see if it floated on water. We balanced coins in the boat to make it even harder. After that, we chotted all of our ideas to think about what actions George did, what he could see and then how he might of felt after giving his shirt to the goat to use as a sail on his boat.

We love singing the song for each plot point.

Today we started our new story The Smartest Giant in Town. We read the first section where the giant walks through the local town and bumps into a giraffe. The giraffe moaned that he was cold and needed to warm up, therefore we all needed to make a tie for the giraffe to warm up his long neck!

Look at the designs we created on our ties! 👔
