Writing about our 'children'

Most of us remembered to bring our gingerbread children back to school today... Ashikka and Zoe even spent time last night decorating their carry cases and Flynn gave his person a healthy dinner of broccoli!

Tonight we're all going home with them and will be thinking about what we can do to help keep them safe and healthy.  Try to get some pictures of you looking after your 'children' if you can, LH1!

Keeping our 'Children' Safe!

Today we started a new concept writing focus.

Some of our learners decorated biscuits to turn them into our children... we then made carry bags and containers for them to go home in.  Over the next few days we're going to be taking our children with us and doing our best to keep them safe.  I wonder what they might get up to!

Feel free to decorate them at home and take photos of what they do after and before school - be sure to keep them safe.

Is it ok to leave your child at home by themselves?

Is it ok to leave them out in the yucky weather?

Here's one of the blue reading groups sharing their questioning - Miss Holland started them off but then they shared their ideas independently.  How do you think they went?

Hats for term 4!

This term we all need to be wearing school hats as it is the summer term just like term 1. We find it useful if there is something attached to our hats so that we can identify our own one really easily.

These group of children are fine demonstrators!

Thank you to our volunteers :-) We like how you have put a ribbon or a button or badges on your school hats. Round of applause for all of you in hub 1!

From next week if you don't bring your hat to school, unfortunately you will have to sit in the shade during break times so please remember to bring them!

Sharing our writing

Thanks to our 'make our lunch' helpers!

Making Our Lunch!

Last week we spent our writing time writing invitations.  We invited our parents to come in and help us to make our own lunch.

We planned our menu and got into groups to decide on the special touches we wanted.

Yesterday was the big day when we made our delicious food!

Music and Songs Break Through groups

We had so much fun collaborating, sharing ideas and talking about what we could do for our projects.

We played with the instruments and then decided what we were going to use for our songs. Our voice is an instrument too!



We gave each other feedback so that we have next steps to improve our performances. We had a fantastic day!

Our Amazing Tower!

Look at our amazing tower that we made together in Break Through time.

By Carys, Sadith, George, Flynn and Thomas

Flynn - “It’s huge we are making a tower. It’s like a Sky Tower.”

Sadith - “We could make a window making cameras.”

George - “We are making a video camera to see if there is danger over night.”

Sadith- “This could be the big ball.”

Thomas - “It could be a camera.”

Sadith peers through the windows at Thomas and was laughing.

Real Life Learning in Action!

You can't hold a Stonefields learner back!

Check out Charlie and Oliver in their kitchens baking up a storm.  They must have ran home and gotten their noses straight into their recipe books.  Well done, boys, you've really shown everyone that learning doesn't just happen between 9 and 3 at school.

How did they taste?  What was the best part about this home learning challenge?  What was tricky?

We can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with!

Enjoy our photos and be sure to check back as more Hub 1 learners get in on the action...
