Hunstanton Week Ending Friday 25th June

Hi Squirts and your families,

This week we have been Uplevelling sentences as part of our English work about Dr Xargle’s Book of Eartlets.

In maths we have been learning to tell the time using an analogue clock. You should all be able to tell o’clock, half past, quarter-past and quarter-to even if you can’t remember how to tell the time to within 5 mins. You realised this week how important knowing your 5 times table was.

In DT we have been designing our bunting ready to learn how to do a running stitch next week.

I’m sorry there are no pictures this week. Perhaps some of you will keep reminding me to take some photos during next week.

We must also remember to keep an eye on the tadpoles in the pond who are quickly becoming froglets.

See you on Monday.

Mr H.

Hello Squirts,

In this blog I have included all the photos of you finishing cars (or as I say buggies ) in DT. I have also included some photos of the tadpoles in the pond in the sensory garden as we have been watching these develop for a few weeks. Who knows, maybe by next week we shall see some froglets!

Hello Parents of my Hunstanton Squirts,

As part of our topic about Toys we had an amazing picnic on Thursday lunchtime despite the weather.

We experienced a before, during and after encounter with it.

Before and during:

Then, five minutes after we got back to the classroom there was an amazing storm which ended with snow.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We were unable to play traditional Victorian games outside because of the weather but we will try to next week.

Best wishes,

Mr H.

Good Morning  Super, Smart, Studious, Soft-hearted, Sleek, Sparkly, Scary, Sensible (Really?), Sprightly, Saucy, Shrewd, Sociable,  Stupendous, Squirts,

I hope you have enjoyed your final week of the Spring Term and are looking forward to the Easter Holidays.

I have been sent some photos of your PE lesson with Mrs Woods which I have attached below. It looks like you are continuing to blow away the cobwebs from Lockdown. Some of your track suites are so bright and colourful, I at first thought you were wearing your pyjamas!

 

 

 

 

I hope you all enjoy the Easter Holiday and don’t eat so much chocolate it makes you sick.

I no longer have to shield after the end of this month so I will be back with you for the beginning of the Summer Term which I am really looking forward to.

Take care and stay safe,

Mr H.
