Red Nose Day 2013!

What a 'Fun Friday' we had this week!
We all had either 'mad' hair, wore silly hats or red noses in order to raise as much money as we can for 'Comic Relief'.
We also told jokes. Here are some of our favourites!

"Why did the lady put a trumpet in the fridge?"
" So that she could play cool music!"

"Knock, knock,"
"Who's there?"
"Little old man,"
"Little old man who?"
"Little old man who can't reach the doorbell!"

"What did one snowman say to the other snowman?"
"Can you smell carrots?"

"Two crisps walked past a bus stop. A bus pulled by and asked if they would like a lift. They replied 'No thanks, we're Walkers!"


We definitely did 'Something Funny For Money!'

Wythnos Cymreag!

We have had a very busy 'Welsh Week'!
From drawing our leeks and daffodils and using watercolours to paint them to learning our welsh Eisteddfod poem and song.
We have researched and designed posters of welsh attractions and have learnt about who St.David was and why we celebrate St.David's Day.
We read a welsh language book based on St.David's Day and have created some funky folk dances too!

Da iawn pawb!!

To infinity and beyond!

We've had an 'Out of this World'  experience this week when we all created aliens in class! Having listened to the music from 'War of the Worlds' we drew our aliens, labelling how they looked and identified their characteristics.We then described our aliens using similes. Here are some examples:-

Rhys - "His hair is like a hedgehog in a ball!"

Bradley - " His skin is like a bumpy road."

Gethin - "His body is as round as a circle."

Ashley "His teeth are as red as blood!"

Olivia - "He moves like melting ice-cream."

Kelly-Ann - "His feet are like bricks from a house."

Amber - "His legs are wobbly like jelly."

We painted our aliens and all wrote a newspaper report based on our alien encounter! These reports are so good, they will be on display in our classroom! Well done everybody!

Happy New Year!

 A very warm welcome back to school! I hope you enjoyed the Christmas holidays and have recharged your batteries for a very busy Spring Term! This term our topic is 'Tomorrow's  World', where we will be researching and imagining what life might be like in the future!

This week we have been busy studying 'Time' in Maths and creating animal records in preparation for creating a class database. We have also been evaluating last term's targets and writing our new targets for this term. 

What a treat! Class 4 have also been lucky enough to be selected to work with the Cardiff City Football project!  Make sure you remember your trainers every Wednesday!

Christmas Fun!

What a very busy and exciting last week before the Christmas holidays! We had our fantastic junior disco where we all showed off our moves and experienced a very enjoyable panto (Oh yes we did!).

I would like to thank all of the children for their very kind Christmas gifts and to wish everyone a merry and joyful Christmas and a very happy new year to you all! I hope Santa gave you all that you wished for!

Sixties Sue

We had another important visitor to our class last week. Her name was 'Sixties Sue.' She told us all about  popular sixties music, dance, fashion, television, news and new foods. Here are some of our comments :-
Eleanor - " When she told us about the Beatles, that they were very popular and they sang on the roof....I found that funny!"
Roman - "The Beatles stopped playing music in Britain 'coz the fans were to loud!"
Olivia - " She told us about the records, they were very big compared to ours!"
Amber - "She showed us the mashed potato dance and we danced it!"
Courtney - "I liked the fashion of the clothes. I liked the short skirt and Heidi's long dress."
Maddison - " They had jostix burning in their house, they gave out a scent. Sixties Sue lit a jostix and I liked the smell!"
Regan - " The 'Space Race' was on and Russia won first but America wanted another 'Space Race' and then America won because they put a man on the moon first!"
Mrs Roderick- "I really enjoyed taking part in the sixties dance moves and listening to the children accompanying the Beatles by singing 'Yellow Submarine'!"
