On Tudor day the children will be performing their Tudor dances to their families. Here are the videos and/or music to their dances if they would like to practice what we have been doing at home.

Good afternoon,
Unfortunately a boy has lost not one, but two of his coats after being hung up in the cloakroom. The first one was grey with blue and red stripes on the arms, the second a Helly Hansen bright blue waterproof with new pair of gloves in the pocket.
If someone has taken these home by accident (lots of people have similar coats) or sees them lying around please return to me.
Many thanks,
Miss Dyke
Here are the spellings for this half term. The children should be aware which spelling list they are practicing from in class.
Any questions – Please ask! 
In class we have been coming up with actions and re-telling the information text about ‘The Pillory’. For homework this week, please can children practice learning the information text. If possible could parents make a note of how many times they practiced this.
As an additional bit of homework (if you have time) the children have been given a different information text in their red homework books, and they must label the key features of it.
Have a good weekend and enjoy Bonfire night!
Watch the video below of our class sailing! Thanks to the Guernsey Sailing Trust and also everyone that came along to help us. We had a fantastic time!
Here are some useful and reliable links that can help you research the Tudor Monarchs. To make your researching more reliable find your facts from 3 different sources before taking it as truth!

Due in on Tuesday 4th October
We have just met all the Tudor Monarchs and are beginning to learn a little about them. For your homework in the coming weeks we’d like you to create a leaflet or poster or an other interesting presentation (e.g. Facebook page, model, powerpoint) about one of the Tudor Monarchs (kings or queens). Think about the examples you were shown from last year. Your project must include:
Make sure your work:
You can use books or the topic page on this blog (for links) to help you find out information. Don’t forget homework club Monday lunchtimes and ask us if you need internet access or any resources such as paper, card etc.
Literacy Homework – due in Wednesday 14th September
In class, we have been learning about the ‘VCOP’ superheroes and how they help us in our writing. To start our ‘Imaginary Worlds’ topic next week and to celebrate Roald Dahl day we have chosen an extract from ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.’ Please read the extract with your child and see if they can highlight the VCOP.
Once you have read the story, identify and underline some (not all!) examples of:
Vocabulary – adjectives, adverbs and verbs
Connectives – joining words, e.g. and, because, but, so
Openers – words / phrases that start sentences
Punctuation – underline ONE example of each
Use colouring pencils. This will help you when writing your own version next week.
