Vocab Video!

Hi 5B! As you know, we have our English exam soon and that means that we have to study LOTS of vocabulary. To help you study vocab from Vocab 1 (food) and Vocab 2 (clothes) I have made a video (see the bottom of this post).

What you have to do:

1. Get your mini whiteboard and a whiteboard pen
2. Write numbers 1-10 (like we do in a vocab test)
3. Click on the link at the bottom of this post.
4. First, watch the video and try and say all the vocab words you see
5. Watch the video again and try and write all the words down on your whiteboard
6. Correct your writing using the answer section of the video
7. You can repeat this process as many times as you want to!

Have fun and we will talk about how it went tomorrow in class!
Post a comment and tell the class what you thought about the activity. Did you like it? Was it easy/difficult?

Founder's Day Fun!

Today we had lots of fun making a mural with the Year 1 children. We didn't have time to put the title and need to do a few finishing touches but we are very proud of our work and loved helping the smaller children. The title is "No Storm Can Sink a Friendship". Post a comment on what you like most about it.


We ended Founder's Day by making some beautiful candle holders out of empty glass yoghurt pots. Take a look at how creative we are!

A Christmas Carol...scary but exciting!

Last week we started reading our new book "A Christmas Carol" and I know that you are all really enjoying it and are excited to know what happens next.
