Pyjamarama Day – Crew Thompson💤

What a great, fun filled Friday we have had in Crew Thompson today celebrating pyjamarama day! 🤩

After break, we visited Starbooks! ☕🧋 We got to choose a drink off the menu and sit down to read a book! It was lovely to see the children enjoying the book and read for pleasure. They even got to review the book and say whether they would recommend it or not!

Before lunch, we completed a kahoot quiz which is something our crew really enjoy doing. We had one that tested our knowledge on a range of books we have read and spoken about!

After lunch, we read a story called “A Monster’s Surprise”. We choose some characters to put in the hot seat and ask a few questions! We also did some freeze frames to show the different parts of the story.

After all our hard work, we went outside to read our class shared read with an ice lolly! 🍦 We loved sitting in the shade and listening to Miss Lee read Charlie and the Chocolate factory … we are just getting to the good bit! 📖

Pyjamarama Day in EYFS!

We’ve had so much fun during pyjamarama day in EYFS! We’ve had a teacher swap where some of the teachers from the rest of school came to read us a story which we loved! We’ve also had reading volunteers from KS2 come to read us stories which was so much fun! Finally, we’ve had our grown ups come to share stories with us at the end of the day in the sunshine ☀️

Pajamarama

It wasn’t exactly the weather for pjs but that didn’t stop us from having a lovely day filled with reading.

We started the day off with children completing a Who dunnit mystery. Children worked in pairs to read some information which they then had to use to deduce who had stolen the paintings. Lots of the children figured out who done it but massive well done to Jack who give the exact reason why she was guilty.

Before lunch, we completed a couple of kahoot quizzes which is something our crew really enjoy doing. We had one that tested our knowledge on books but also one that was focused on specific characters.

Another activity we completed was a wordsearch. It was lovely seeing them support their peers if they struggled to find a word.

We have also started a new class read today called A different sort of Normal. We are reading this books because it is the real life story of a girl who talks about what it was like growing up with autism and the challenges she encountered. We thought this would be very relevant as it’s important to understand the things that make us different but unique and help us understand ourselves a little bit more.
