Month: March 2024

A massive thank you to everyone who managed to come in this morning to see our fabulous literacy based work. We have had a very busy week getting it all together, printing our backgrounds with our Indian inspired patterns, making sure we had written up into neat our scary stories, poems, animal fact files and letter from Ruby. Unfortunately we couldn’t fit on our speeches. Just to finish it all off we followed the outline of parts of our pattern with some stick on jewels. We hope that you are all as proud of our work as we are.

Have a lovely Easter break everyone and we look forward to a very busy but exciting final term at Damers.

Is a doodle ever finished?

This is the question we asked ourselves as we were doodling! Pattern comes in many forms, natural, symmetrical, repeated to name a few.

We have been looking at creating a repeated pattern using Indian design as our inspiration. These should be ready for our Stay and Share next week.

In the meantime take a look at some of the very intricate doodle patterning we’ve been doing. Straight in pen, no pencil or rubbers allowed!

On Monday all of Year 4 went to Thomas Hardye School theatre to rehearse and then perform in the evening in a singing concert with other schools from the local area. It was a really good concert and we totally smashed it! The singing, behaviour, standard of performance and professionalism was outstanding. Well done everyone we are all so very proud of you all.

What a lovely time we all had today. The children looked amazing dressed up as words. Thank you everyone for all of the effort that was put into this.

We had good fun joining in the online football star quiz. We knew most of the answers and both Noah and Corey were amazing. We also spent quite a lot of time reading in different places, including reading to the chickens!

Our current whole class reading book is The Nowhere Emporium by Ross Mackenzie. We thought we might finish it this week but we haven’t quite. It is a brilliant book and we still haven’t discovered whether Ellie is a ghost or real.
