The children are trying hard to use all the skills we have been learning throughout the book. We are having a class writing competition to see who can apply all their knowledge in their own version of the story and both myself and Mrs Hicks cannot wait to see the end results!

The children were very calm afterwards!

• Wednesday 16 February 2022 Last Week of Term! We have had a busy last week in Woodpecker Class. In PSHE, the children have been focusing on working as a team. They were tasked with creating an imaginary bird that lived in a garden of dreams. They had to think about the design carefully, taking into account every group members vision. After planning their design on paper, the groups then had to create their imaginary birds using various materials. The children worked hard to ensure every group member had a role to play.
