Weekly Update (Week ending 06.12.19)
Hi all,
We have had a lovely week in Harlequins.
We started our week with the wonderful Panto production of Beauty and the Beast- WE LOVED IT!! The children even wrote their own theatre review of the production. Most of us liked the silly jokes and current songs!
We then created some beautiful tiles in the shape of Greek Vases. These are drying well and will be ready to paint next week.
We are also beginning to secure our carol singing for the upcoming service- we are almost able to sing without the word sheet.
The children also wrote their own free-verse poems about a small dragon. These were truly fantastic and I do believe the best writing the children have produced all year. Well done Harlequins, I am so proud of you.
Please can children have joggers and sweatshirts in their PE kits- it is now much colder and we are still going outside.
Dojo Points and Golden Time
To clarify, children who demonstrate our learning animal behaviours earn dojo points. As a class, the children are working towards a total that will earn them an afternoon of golden time. This is an ambitious target, agreed with the children, that can take a few weeks to achieve. As well as this, each child needs to earn over a certain amount to ensure that they receive the full amount of golden time. This strategy encourages all children to work hard, rather than simply relying on the positive behaviour of others to get them to the class target.
Have a lovely weekend,
Miss Lewis
