Those Magic Moments in teaching after much rehearsing and practise and daily Sounds Write phonics Word Building/Symbol Search/Sound Swap make it all worthwhile.
Magic Moment Mohammed is BLENDING- WOOHOO!!🙂😊👉🦊🍏❤️
What a morning. Our girls finished runners up only losing on penalties to a very strong team. They were an absolute credit all morning and we’re so proud of them. Runners up in the whole of the county!
Y3 have had their first 🎸 lesson today - learning how to sit in playing position and here in resting position. They listened carefully and played E and B strings. …But they all had sore thumbs by the end of the lesson! 🙈
4M loved creating our own rhythmic compositions! We made our own for homework and them combined them to make a class piece!

Stay tuned to see how are composition develops over the next few weeks!
