Monday 4th November

Welcome to our blog spot.

Thank you to everyone who attended the Rosary on Thursday morning.

Homework has started and is due in at the end of the week.

The new topic homework was given out. Please see details below.

Christmas Project homework

The children produced excellent project homework last term and they presented their work in lots of ways.

This half term’s topic is

CHRISTMAS AROUND THE WORLD.

The project can centre on one country or many countries. It can be the story of Christmas or traditions, Christmas carols or prayers.

Examples of work: power points, large posters, models, a tableau, map work, written reports, songs, videos etc.

Your child will be expected to give a short presentation to the rest of the class to show their finished product, during the last week before Christmas: December 16^th to 19^th December.  

Good luck and once again we are really looking forward to the wonderful creations. 

Please note this is to replace the sentence homework. We will be still doing the maths homework and learning spellings.      

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to come in and see one of the three and four team.
