First week of the school year

What have we been up to during the first week back at school?

We have been very, very busy, making new friends, renewing existing friendships, and getting to know our new teacher. We are having lots of fun reading "The Twits" by Roald Dahl, and re-writing some parts of the story, giving our own twist to the battle between Mr and Mrs Twit. We have been swimming at Eastbourne pool almost everyday, waiting for when, in week three, the Kiwi-swim instructors take Room 7 for instructional swimming lessons.  We have also been doing lots of art, to get our classroom bright and colourful for the new school year.

Busy busy busy...
Tim got a certificat in Assembly for having a GREAT start to the year- well done Tim!

We all used some text from The Twits to highlight the descriptive language Roald Dahl uses. We then wrote our favourites on post-its to use in our own writing

Learning how to play "The Spelling Game"
