Parliament Week

On Thursday we were involved in making a very important decision. We had to decide which campaign we wanted to vote for. In assembly the School Council, Eco Committee and Cygnet News put forward their argument to try and persuade us to vote for their campaign.

Here is how we voted in 1GH.

Adventure playground - 14 votes
Nature trail - 7 votes
Stage lights - 2 votes

Mason and Marselis had the important job of posting our envelope containing the results into the ballot box.

Once all the votes had been counted, we received the results in a special envelope. We were overjoyed as the adventure playground won! The excitement didn’t end there, as we then got to have a go at designing how we thought the new adventure playground should look.

100% Attendance

As a reward for achieving 100% attendance for a whole week, 1GH will be able to come to school in non-uniform on Wednesday 28th November 2018.  Well done 1GH!   Please remember the children will still need sensible shoes and warm clothes for playtimes.

Quarters

We love to make Maths hands-on as much as possible. We have been doing lots of work recently on fractions and it has been a perfect opportunity to do lots of practical activities.  We were really good at using the unifix cubes to explore lots of different ways of showing a quarter. We made some interesting shapes and learnt that although the shape might look different, there was still one quarter that was represented by using a different coloured cube. 

Homework

Thank you so much to those children who have been bringing things in from home to share with us at school. We love that the children are excited and engaged with their learning and wanting to continue this at home. Creating a thirst for learning is so important to us and we are so pleased that they can share this with you too. Lots of children made monsters and rather interesting concoctions at home when we were looking at Morris the Mankiest Monster and they helped to make a fantastic Big Writing display in the classroom. Last week, some children brought objects in for the Autumn display to help us with our Autumn poem. After half term we will be reading Goldilocks and the Three Bears. It would be great if the children could bring in anything they would like to share with us about this story.
