christmas shortcake

Please could some children bring butter tomorrow to make the shortcake.
The children have also been given some literacy homework.

Holiday homework

Each child will be given a maths booklet for the holidays.They will be given a extra reading book.
5A are to do a project about change from 1930 -2000.They will be expected to work in pairs or a group of three.If this is impossible they will have to do it individually. This should be presented either as a powerpoint and brought to school on a pen drive; or on a large piece of card.The children will have to do research on the internet and it is important that they are supervised. If you do not have internet at home all public libraries have internet. The children will be expected to take notes and write the information up in their own words. Work copied directly from the internet will get a very poor grade as there is no evidence of the child understanding what they have written.All children will be presentng their project to the class on the first day of next term.

Well done

Well done everyone .The dance was great and so was the acting and reading.Paula was AMAZING.Thankyou Miss Agueda for the brilliant make up.
  Don't forget to bring some food for the party on Wednesday.
