World book day

IMG_0544

Wow, well what a jam packed day we had for World Book Day! We transformed our classroom into Hogwarts, finding out which house the sorting hat had decided we were in, making potions, having a negative number cauldron lesson with Professor Snape and used chalk to create spooky pictures of Hogwarts at night. We hoped to play Quidditch at the end of the day, but we simply ran out of time!

However, we managed to squeeze a few games in during P.E and golden time the next day. I want to know though, which was your favourite part of the day?

Roald Dahl fun

We had lots of fun travelling through a range of Roald Dahl books, using our imaginations to meet many different characters and improving our ball skills, balancing skills and awareness when moving to each new land. It was tricky but lots of fun! Which skill was your favourite? Have you practiced any at home?

Austin’s feel good flapjacks!

 

Check out Austin’s interactive homework video on how to make some ‘Feel Good Flapjacks!’ He chose the ‘masterchef’ homework, which was to make a meal which was fit for a hiker climbing the toughest of mountains.

They look scrumptious Austin! I can’t wait to follow your recipe! Maybe you could try making them at home too. Do you like Austin’s video? Leave a comment to let him know.
