A message to Oak Class

Published by Miss Pearcey on October 24, 2008 in Oak Class.

The children who came in their culture outfits today looked fantastic! Thank you for sharing your outfits with the school.    

Today we looked at and made 3D shapes with playdough. I asked the children to see if they could find any sphere or cube shaped objects at home. Can they find and name any other 3D shapes?

I have also asked the children if they would like to decorate their learning journal over half term. They may stick on the front cover any photographs, pictures, or drawings to personalise their journal. They may also add any pictures, stories or photographs inside the journal.

Last of all,  I hope everyone in Oak Class has a lovely half term break. They have been working hard and deserve it.

See you all after half-term,

Miss Pearcey
