Teddy supporting Gloucester Rugby

On Saturday the teddy went with me and my best friend to Kingsholm rugby ground to watch Gloucester play Rovigo at rugby.  Gloucester won 90-7.  They scored 14 tries.  I wanted Glouceter to score 100 points but they didn't. The teddy was really glad that Gloucester won.  After the game we ate fish and chips for tea from the chip shop.

To Russia From Jack

I am going to tell you about my time with the monkey. On the Friday night I got the monkey I went to take my sister to a club that she goes to every week. I had to get an early night because I a football match the next day. When I woke up I felt very excited. Unfortunately, my team lost 6- 1. On Saturday afternoon I went for a bike ride with my friends. On Sunday morning I played with my nieghbour. In the afternoon I played another football match. With a bit of luck, we won 3-1. On Sunday night I watched some of my favourite programs on t.v. What do you do on the weekend? From Jack.

Dogs

Our teachers are called Mrs Smith and Mrs Penman. They both have a dog. Last Sunday they took their dogs for a walk together. This is Molly on the left and Millie on the right.

 The dogs are female and really like each other.
Can you guess which dog belongs to which teacher?

Music lessons

In our music lessons we have been singing along to World War 2 songs like the White Cliffs of Dover.
We have some people who sing and others who play musical instruments. What do you do in music?

My Birthday!


It is my birthday today but I could not take the teddy home so I took a different teddy home. I have taken a picture of him outside TenPin 10 and on my Trampoline.

Thank you!

Thank you for all of your comments - your English is excellent. I will show all of these comments to my class next week. Well done everyone!

More photographs







It was a very exciting day and we learned a lot about life in the 1940s in Britain.

Some of our photographs from our trip.






We had to look sad because we were pretending that we were being taken out of the cities into the countryside where it would be safer. This meant that we would be leaving our families behind and we didn't know if we would ever see them again!

We had all made gas mask boxes, ID cards and ration books. We had to show these to the staff in the museum.

It was funny because we were allowed to arrest our teacher because she hadn't brought her pretend ID card!

Unfortunately, we had to let Mrs Smith and Mrs Penman go free. We needed them to take us around the rest of the museum!

STEAM Trip

Today we went on a school trip to the STEAM Museum. It was very interesting and we learnt loads about World War Two. We were dressed up as evacuees. We pretended to get evacuated and went on a trip to meet our new mothers. It was good fun but our gas mask boxes and name labels got a bit annoying by the end of today!

Our classroom

This is the wall at the back of our classroom. A boy from a secondary school came in and painted it for us. He is a brilliant artist! This is London and St Paul's cathedral during the Blitz in the Second World War.

Autumn


The trees are still mainly green but some are beginning to get red and yellow colours too.

Science lessons


In Science we are studying light this term. What are you studying?

Harvest Festival

We have had our Harvest Festival celebrations this week. They were fun!
We were celebrating the food that we have and each year we have a guest speaker.
This year the gentleman who came to talk to us was very funny. He had lots of outfits and he kept changing out of one and into another - we all laughed.

He started as a shop keeper (selling bread), then a lorry driver ( to bring bread to the shop), then the miller (milling the wheat to provide flour) , then the farmer ( to grow the wheat). It was all about who we should say thank you to for our bread. The farmer said that he couldn't grow the wheat if there was no sun and we should thank God for the sunshine. It was very clever!
