We are being followed!

If you look to the left of the screen you will notice that we are being followed by St Edward's Catholic primary school in Selly Park.
Our year 3 and year 6 classes will be sharing their preparation for the Sacraments of Reconciliation, Holy Communion and Confirmation. This is a new and exciting development as we not only have faith friends within our own school but we now have faith friends in another part of Birmingham.

It will be interesting to see how this project develops over the coming months.

Gabriel and Mary

Today we looked at the film of Mary with Gabriel. The was very little speech so we had to imagine what Gabriel said to Mary. We collected our ideas and shared them with our talk partners. We were able to feedback to the class what we thought.
We then compared our thoughts and ideas with an account from the Bible.

We were able to then produce a playscript of what we thought Gabriel said to Mary and what Mary said back.

Times tables resources

Many thanks to Tom Barretts ICT in my classroom site for these times table sites to help us reach our half term targets.
The Multiflyer site is a fantastic site which the player (it really feels like a game) travels around the solar system answering multiplication questions. It can give printout of results and can show progress over time.

It is a simple site to use and useful to practice your tables. Then have a go on Tutpup to challenge people from all over the world.

A reflect upon our first confession.

Today we collected our feeling about the Sacrament of Confession which we made last Saturday, here is a child's view of the service.

On Saturday 22nd November I received the Sacrament of Reconciliation. It is the second Sacrament that I have received. I went to church with my mum,dad and sister. When I was waiting I felt nervous, sick and brave. Father David helped me as God forgave my sins.
