Mon 17th ScScience: Viruses   Iin the morning, before playtime,   we studied viruses,   bacteria and fungi with Miss  Shah and Miss Fraser. It was great   fun! 18th P.E: Gumboot dancing Gumboot (wellies) dancing started when African mines celebrated getting new gumboots or other things to be proud of. We tried gumboot dancing in and it was great fun! In our lesson, we filmed each other and watched it on the big screen! Art and D.T: Mon 17th Our art this week was linked to our science. We were making bread with yeast. It was fun but challenging too! Then, in the afternoon, we got to taste them: they were Brilliant!!! 17th Craft/art: We finished our Christmas cards, made calendars, decorated envelopes and did Christmas activities. 18th Jokes of the week: What do elves learn at school? The elfabet! Riddle of the week: Two children were born at the same time, of the same year, of the same day to the same Mum. Why weren’t they twins? They were triplets! 20th   P.E.:We were plplaying bench    Ball with four teams. 20th Biscuit decorating: We decorated biscuits to eat, using smarties, stars & silver balls. Mrs.Williams and Mrs.Gilder kindly brought them for us. Thank you! Christmas stuff! 18th £2 room: On Tuesday, we went to the £2 room so we can buy some presents for our friends and family. We hope you enjoy the gifts! 19th Craft assembly On Wednesday 19th December, we had our craft assembly. Sycamore (us) showed our 3D cards. Hopefully, you will receive some of these cards, as they are meant for all our loved ones! Another great crafts assembly, hopefully better ones next year! 18th Christmas maths: On Tuesday there was no proper maths, so, as it was near Christmas, we did some Christmas maths. The first task was fitting certain shapes into a present shape. It was very good fun. Task two was Christmas code crackers. We had to add up all the right numbers to make a word. It was really challenging (for those who got onto it)! 17th Viruses: What is it like to know what’s in your body? Eloise:  It’s interesting but scary at the same time. It’s also weird that on a single piece of bacteria, there’s 10,000 viruses. Bread making: Did you enjoy it? Abbie: I really enjoyed choosing the different ingredients to go into our bread. I liked working as a team. What did you learn?    Hannah: I learnt about the effort it takes to make it and shape it to the right size. I really enjoyed it, even if it was a bit of a challenge. They look great! 19th Christmas lunch: How was the Christmas lunch? Jaiyeola: I found it good, the sausage wrapped in bacon was the best. The chocolate cake was epic and I wanted an other one. 18th £2 room: How did the £2 room compare to other years? Nick: It was definitely one of the best years. I really enjoyed choosing from a wide variety of gifts.   Thank you! Thank you for reading the blog. This shall be the last blog before we see you again in 2013! Merry Christmas and a Happy New year!
