Beetle Drive

This afternoon we had great fun playing Snowman Beetle Drive (a Miss Gallagher's family favourite!)

First we made our Snowmen and cut them into 6 pieces. Each piece was numbered 1-6.

 

Then we sat in a big circle and passed the two dice around. Each time we rolled a new number we could take a piece out of our envelopes add it to our snowman! We were great at taking turns and being kind to each other.

When we had all six pieces Miss Gallagher gave us a clue...we had a little something hidden somewhere in the school, but we had to think very carefully to work out where it was. When we found our surprise we gave a big 'woop!' for our classmates to hear! We were lovely and supportive, cheering whenever our friends solved their clue.

See our clues and the moment we found our surprises in some funny places around school below...

Muddy boots galore!

Where do you go to collect things for us?

Buzz buzz buzz!

Where do you go to change the date?

You love to tap away here...

3,2,1 blast off!

Chop, chop, snip, snip!

I just need to check you are all still here...

Mrs Bales hates this (glitter!)

Where do we stand at the end of the day?

Where can you see yourself?

This tray is a bit sticky!

Oh monitor...

Scrub that paint!

Help! I can't spell that!

Where do the teachers hang their coats?

It's a bit warm in here!

Ding ding - the alarm is ringing!

 

Also - a big thank you to Mrs Bales for our lovely present bags!

Well done to all of the children for working so hard this term. I hope you all have a wonderful, well-earned rest!

As always, thank you for your continued support at home and I'll look forward to seeing you all again in 2017. Happy holidays!

Watch our writing grow!

Hello!

Just a note to say that our 'we are orange class' display has changed. Now, each time we do a big piece of writing, it will be put in your child's special wallet on the wall. This way, we can look back and see how our writing has improved over the year.

Where you see the letter 'I' (as below) on a piece of writing, this means that the child has done this independently with no adult support. Where you see an 'S' this means there has been some support, but we always try to be as independent as possible when adding to this special wall!

Please feel free to come into class any day after school to have a look at what your child has been doing and chat about what you can do at home to help. We are proud of what we do in Orange Class and would love to share our achievements with you.

Miss Gallagher
