Year 4 came into school looking slightly poorly yesterday. There were spots everywhere!
Luckily, no illnesses, just lots of support for Children in Need. It was great to see the effort made by the children (and possibly parents) in putting together an outfit that had spots.
In addition to supporting a charity, Year 4 were able to take over some of the responsibilities in the classroom. This created a fair bit of excitement!
We discussed which jobs would be suitable and safe for children to take over and these are some of the ideas Year 4 came up with:
- taking the register
- delivering the tests
- handing out golden tickets
- delivering show and tell
- reading with Reception
- giving out stickers
- handing out cool class tokens
- writing certificates
- speaking in assembly
- reading the class novel
- and much more..
It was great to see some of the 8 Rs for Learning being put to use:
- responsibilities
- risk taking
- being ready
- remembering
- being resourceful
The children did such a good job at taking over these roles with maturity, and a sense of humour, which is always a bonus!
