All the Worlds a Stage

March 19th, 2007 by muxton in Uncategorized · No Comments

Those  are famous words from Shakespeare.   I was lucky to visit the other day and found you all busy rehearsing for your play.

As I didn’t get to see much can you tell me more! 

What is it about   Who is playing which role?   What are you doing  in rehearsals?   How do you feel about the proper performance?

I’m looking forward to coming to see it.

What’s the matter Royston Knapper?

October 18th, 2006 by muxton in books · 40 Comments

Royston Knapper is the main character in our class reading book.  He is quite a naughty boy and gets up to lots of mischief, especially when Penelope Pringle is around.  At the harvest festival Royston changed Penelope’s poem to a rude version and Penelope didn’t realise he had done this until she had read out the wrong version.

What are you reading at the moment?

Who is your main character and what do they get up to?

What a brilliant visit to the Blue Planet Aquarium. 

I had such a great time and really enjoyed seeing all the different fish and sea creatures.  I think my favourite part was seeing the electric eels, they’re very funny to look at.

Which was your favourite part?

Patterns in Art

May 18th, 2006 by muxton in General · 18 Comments

This term we are thinking about the different types of patterns we can find in our environment, natural and manmade.  We took a camera out around the school and collected a selection of patterns. 

I have made a collage of some of these patterns.

COLLAGE.JPG

How many different patterns can you see?

Can you identify the area / object the pattern comes from?

What do you like / dislike about each pattern?

Perhaps you could make your own collage of patters and bring it in to school.
