The children had to look at the clues to work out what are Term 1 topic was.  After suggestions of ‘Pirates’ and ‘Medieval Times’, the children worked out that it was THE TUDORS!

Four year 6 pupils went to the University of Kent to carry out extra maths activities.  Their first session involved cracking codes.  They managed to work out the combination of numbers to open the briefcase and won some sweets!

I have just finished reading ‘The House with Chicken Legs’ by Sophie Anderson.  I thoroughly enjoyed this book and will now be adding it to Elm’s Book Corner to be enjoyed by others.

Summary:

Marinka dreams of a normal life, where her house stays in one place long enough for her to make friends. But her house has chicken legs and moves on without warning. For Marinka’s grandmother is Baba Yaga, who guides spirits between this world and the next. Marinka longs to change her destiny and sets out to break free from her grandmother’s footsteps, but her house has other ideas…

 

I look forward to being able to add some book reviews from the children on here!

Have a great weekend!
