New Literacy Module: Instructions (Video)
The children have started their new literacy learning, which is all about instructions. We have been practising reading and writing instructions, and even doing the actions!
Tomorrow we are going to see if we can write some instructions on how to make a sandwich!
PE with Leeds Met Sports Coaching Students
Year 3 are just one of a number of classes who are currently working with Sports Coaching students from Leeds Met as part of their school placement. The sessions have been very active and enjoyable with the children learning and practising lots of multiskills.

The Reception children took part in a mini aerobic session to raise money for the NSPCC. All the children took part and completed their workout. Please could you send any sponsor money to school by Thursday. Thank you for your support.
SEAL statement 18 October
The last statement as part of our New Beginnings SEAL theme is ‘I can make my class a good place to learn.’
Class contracts and routines are fully in place now so staff will be looking out for children who make good choices to enable their class to have a positive learning environment.
NSPCC – Buddy’s Big Workout
To raise money for one of our nominated charities, the NSPCC, the children in Year 1 have completed their fun physical activity. We hopped, jumped, bounced and even did some step-ups! By doing our activity, we earned 94 points!
Well done children.
This number (94) needs to be entered onto the NSPCC sponsor form. Forms should be returned to school by Thursday 21 October 2010. Thank you for your support.

This week, it’s Talk Time homework and is due in on Wednesday 20 October.
I can talk about pushes and pulls.
- What forces do you know about already?
- Can you give me examples of a push?
- Can you give me examples of a pull?
- Can you see forces? How do you know they are there?
- What push and pull do you do the most?
This homework will really help you in our topic. I can’t wait to hear what you already know!
NSPCC Buddy’s Big Workout
In PE this morning we took on Buddy’s Big Workout!
To fit in with our PE topic, we had decided to try and complete 100 throws and catches. It wasn’t easy. There were a few missed catches. There were a few erratic throws.
But we did manage to make the 100 target! The last throw was a bit tense, but Pamela’s throw was straight and Loraine’s catch was perfect!
It’s now time to get the sponsorship envelopes back in to school. All envelopes need to be in before Thursday 21 October.
Thank you.
