Swifts LOVE BUGCLUB!

The Swift class invited in their parents today to share their BUGCLUB reading.  It was fantastic!  They thoroughly enjoyed it and had a great time reading.  Each class will have the opportunity to invite parents in so they can read with their child and ask any questions that they may have regarding the online programme.  Keep a look out for your class slot or ask your class teacher for more information!

Thank you so much for the parents who came in today, it really meant a lot to your child :)

SUPER SWIFTS don't quit WBD!

Today has been the best day!  Coming to school dressed in our PJs and spending the whole day celebrating our love for reading.  Needless to say, the SUPER Swift class have thoroughly enjoyed it!

To tie in with WBD, we have spent this week looking at the book, 'The day the crayons quit!'  Children spent time predicting what they thought would happen to these poor crayons, who quite frankly have had enough of their owner!  They took on the role of a particular colour today and decided to write a letter to express why they wanted to quit!  The letters are absolutely brilliant :) So much so that we even made a class book out of it. We can't wait for you to read them!

One of the activities allowed children to read on BUGCLUB! They thoroughly enjoyed this and earned lots of coins by completing the online quizzes.  Keep it up SUPER Swifts!  As well as this, each child got the opportunity to share their special book with a child from the Skylarks class.  It was an absolute joy watching them read and hearing a story from an older child.

Thank you so much for all the WONDERFUL books that children have so kindly donated.  You are all AMAZING!  The heartfelt messages have made me want to read them all!

Here's a sneak peak of what we got up to today...
