Book Week

Hello Everyone!

We've had such a busy week in Grasshopper Class!  Firstly a big thank you to all the parents who came along to Parents Evening - it was a great success with nearly everyone popping in for a chat.

It's been Book Week this week and on Tuesday Mr Gregory came to Grasshopper Class to read us some stories and teach us some rhymes.  Do you know he was so good that we didn't want him to leave!  He read lots of his favourite stories and he was so funny - we laughed so much I thought we were going to burst!

 
 



On Thursday morning lots of our families came along to the Story Time session in Grasshopper Class - again a big thank you to all who attended.  We read a great new story called Superworm, written by Julia Donaldson.  We like books written by this author and have already read lots of other stories by her.  Why not look out for some in the library?




Stories

We've had real problems in the playground this week because it has been so windy!  Our sandpit keeps filling up with leaves and we've been really busy sweeping them all out of the way. 



In phonics we have learnt 4 new sounds and are doing really well - keep practising at home please. We have also been making some fabulous rock star glasses!  You wouldn't believe how tricky they are to cut out.

Hayden was going to make his dad a pair of these to wear in his band!
 
 



We are getting excited about our Christmas play and we all know what part we will be playing now.  If you are not sure please come in and ask Mrs Young or Mrs Ball.  We are practising the songs everyday in school and Holly says she has been practising in the bath!

I think our class photo should be in the Great Yarmouth Mercury this week (23.11.12) so make sure you look out for that.

Must be hopping along now.
