Base 5 News
R Charlesworth: October 2018
Well, what have we been up to this week then?
We have done a super job at our harvest assembly — despite being only 14, the children sung their hearts out! When it came to their turn to sing a verse by themselves their voices rang through the church beautifully. Well done Base 5.
This week we have also completed our 'How To' guides — the children have worked really hard on these and their hard work has paid off. They have also worked very hard on their reading this week, comparing different characters, predicting what they think would happen next and looking deeper into the meaning hidden behind some of the words written. Base 5 — because you are so engaged in the text and your learning, your reading skills are really blossoming, keep up the hard work.

After this, the children listened to a story about Terry and Winnie and an argument they had about sharing a crown. We spoke about how...
