We are now well into our book by Betty Birney. Here is a site to check out further things about our favourite hamster.

Thank you Mr O'Kane!

Mr O'Kane has worked very hard over the past few weeks to keep our school safe in the very snowy weather.

Today he cleared a huge amount of the playground so that we could move around on it safely.

Here is a picture with the proof!

Making an Igloo

Today Year 3 and Year 5 made the most of the snowy weather and made an Igloo.

We worked as a team to collect snow and mould it into block shapes. Using co-operation and knowledge of 3D shapes, this is what we managed to create.

There was not quite enough snow for a whole igloo - but this was a pretty good effort! Well done everyone!

Check out our other pictures on the TV outside the office.

Snow game

Snow is falling yet again!

If you have a few spare minutes - have a go at this snowflake puzzle game from the Met office.

Remember that snow flakes need to have lines of symmetry!!

It's cold!!!

With all of the snow it really is cold. Luckily one of us can make something of it all!

Instructions

Have a go at making tea for my Gran. Put the pictures in the correct order and then write the instructions underneath. Don't forget those bossy (imperative) verbs and time connectives.
