Our superstars in 3/4B this week are Lewis and Thomas! Thomas blew everyone away this week in English with his witty headlines. We learnt about what makes a good headline, they are bold, catchy and hook the reader and Thomas certainly achieved that. I can see Thomas being a top reporter for a newspaper one day!! Lewis has been working hard on his concentration during lessons this week and this was clearly evident in our Maths! Lewis focused extremely well during our learning of statistics and was able to interpret and draw a range of charts. Well done boys - keep up the hard work! 

This week's superstars are Leo and Kyrin. Kyrin has been counting in tens and recognising the missing number in the number sequences, and Leo has been sorting materials according to their properties. Keep up the great work boys!

Well done to our girls this week! Holly has been working hard to improve her reading, writing and maths knowledge and skills and it has really paid off, what a superstar! Keira has been working just as hard too, always putting her hand up to contribute to class discussions and really thinking about her handwriting. Good work girls!

Matina and Magnus are our superstars this week! Magnus has shown great knowledge in our history lessons about Florence Nightingale; making links between that and our previous learning in history. Matina has been trying really hard with her writing this week. She is always trying to include her Year 2 targets. Keep up the great work you two!

Sema and Grace have been working their absolute socks off this week. If they keep going like this, they will have a very bright future!

Congratulations to Yu Xin and Oscar who are this week's Pupil of the Week in Year 3.4B. Yu Xin created an outstanding piece of writing all about Humpty Dumpy and the suspense he felt whilst climbing the wall. She was able to use her tension toolkit to create tension and really made us feel the drama Humpty was experiencing the higher up the ladder he went. Oscar has, as always, been a real superstar all week! He is just a wonderful role model for the other children in the class; supporting his friends and always producing work of the highest standard! Well done you two! Keep it up!

Well done to our pupil's of the week Lincoln and Jake. Lincoln has shown such an interest in our work on Greek myths this week and has always been ready with a contribution in class. Jake has returned to school this week firing on all cylinders and has produced some excellent writing in our Theseus and the Minotuar descriptions. My personal favourite moment from this week was when Jake chose to hide under a large pot of muddy water during our Muddy Monsters session. Unfortunately, Jake tipped the pot over and soaked himself in garden water. Sorry Jake but it was VERY funny.

Congratulations to Hristiyana and Beloved who are this week's Pupil of the Week in Year 3.4B. Hrisityana was able to create some fantastic sentences as part of her Humpty Dumpty extract. She used a range of tools from her 'tension toolkit' to build suspense as Humpty climbed the ladder once more. It was cracking!
