Planting a hebe

I planted a hebe in the ESOL garden. First we pushed the bark away and Mrs Anthony cut the weedmat. We dug a hole and put the plant in then put soil on top of the roots. We pushed the soil down and folded the weedmat over. Last we pushed the bark over the weedmat. I thought gardening was fun.

The ESOL party

On Wednesday I went to the ESOL party. My favourite part was musical chairs. Samuel was the winner of Pass the Parcel and he got some stickers.

The Fox and the Crane

We are learning to retell stories in the correct order. Today we read a story called The Fox and the Crane. Then we put the pictures in order. Next we worked with a partner to retell the story using puppets. We had lots of fun.

Rona and the Moon

Rona walked to the river. The moon was shining. Then the moon went behind a cloud. She tripped over and got angry because she hurt foot. So the moon pulled Rona up to the sky. She had the tree and the water bottle in her hands. Now Rona lives in the moon.

Our sandcastle

Rhyming words

We read a book called 'A dragon in a wagon'. We thought of some sentences using rhyming words then illustrated these.

A cat on a mat. Amelie











A goat on a boat. Marcus










A mouse in a house. Thomas










A bear with no hair. Eric

The Wonky Donkey

Today we listened to a song called 'The Wonky Donkey' by Craig Smith. We wrote about the donkey. Our goal was to use the word 'and' in our story to join two ideas. Here are our stories . . .

The donkey has three legs and he likes to drink coffee. Marcus










The donkey has sunglasses on his face and he is stinky. Thomas










The donkey has one eye and he is eating the pants. Eric
