Fantastic Friday...

In the Wrens every Friday is known as 'Fantastic Friday'!

Fridays are fantastic because at the end of each week of exciting learning, we always find our last burst of energy so we can do lots more lovely work!!!

One of our jobs today was to learn a new skill - word processing using the iPads. Here we are typing out the toy poems that we wrote yesterday:







































What a busy class we are...even on a Friday!

Come and read all the fabulous poems we have written. As you can see we have worked very hard.

Mrs Roper's Toys


Mrs. Roper brought in a wonderful collection of old toys.
She was brilliant at showing us how they worked and what they were made out of.
She passed them around and we all had a good look at them.



Can you remember why Mrs. Roper had never put money in the little 
metal money boxes?









           The twizzle thing was Mrs. Taylor's favourite toy.




                 Thank you Mrs Roper and Well Done Wrens!

What's in the toy box?

The Wrens have been writing more toy poems! We looked at a poem written by Trevor Millum and this inspired us to create our own versions. Here are some snippets of the poems we wrote:


What's in the toy box?

What's in the toy box?
What's in the box?
What's in the box 
With the big brass locks?



There's a crane
And a really fast train,


There's a silver clock
And a shiny rock,


Some lego bricks 
And an x-box one,


There's some beautiful hearts
And a lovely piece of art,


There's a gigantic mat
And a fan that flaps,


Some red bouncing balls
And a massive swimming pool,


There's some people who walk
And a teddy bear that talks,


A shiny white Ford
And a swimming award,


There's some shoes to wear
And a grizzly bear,


There's a bus that is green
And a house that is clean,


There's a monster truck
And a yellow duck,


There's a cute little cat
And a dancing mat,


There's some remote control trains
And a flying plane,


There's a dumper truck
And a red and black duck,


There's a wooden sign
And a white and black combine,


There's a red ted
And a blue bed,


Some clowns that frown
And a king that sings,

Some dolls wearing hats
And a rounder's bat,

Some crowns that glow
And a machine that sews,

There's a big dino
And a fierce rhino.

That's what's in the toy box!
That's what's in the box!

You can tell by our faces that we are very proud of the poems that we wrote!

Well done Wrens!!!

What are the Robins favourite toys?

Last week we visited the Robins to ask for their help. We wanted to find out:

What are the Robins favourite toys?

































We used a checklist to help us remember who we had asked.
The Robins were really helpful at showing us where their names were on the list!
























 
Back in our own class, we shared our results with our friends:


















What toy was the most popular?
 
Which was the least?
 
If you made another pictogram, what questions would you ask?
