International Sign Language Day

 

Our friends from IPass, came to visit today to mark International Sign Language Day. They talked to us about the importance of sign language for hearing impaired learners and taught us some of the signs that we might be able to use on the playground when socialising with out IPass friends. We had great fun learning and practicing the signs.

New Playground Equipment

Today, Mr Morgan introduced us to some of the new playground equipment. We talked about sharing and working collaboratively as well as being creative in our use of this new equipment. It was wonderful to listen to the ways in which our class decided to play with and use the equipment – fantastic team work guys!

 

Magnificent Macmillan Fund Raising!

Our challenge this week was to plan, organise and deliver a bun sale to raise money for charity. We talked about how charity workers are real life heroes and how they can help so many people at a time when it is really needed!

We used our maths skills to budget and plan our shopping list.

We used our literacy skills to promote the sale, designing eye catching posters and using the key facts. We also created signs for the bake sale table to let customers know what we were offering and how much it cost.

We used our beautiful manners and skills to shop at Sainsbury’s for the baked goods.

We worked independently of adults, and as a team, to sell our baked goods to over a hundred customers, taking payments and giving change. We raised £116 for Macmillan charity!
