2011: Our Buddies

Our buddies are Year 6 students from Room 13. Their teacher, Stephen Gordon, brings our buddies down to our class every Friday at about 11AM. Our buddies support us on the mat during the introduction of the new Big Book. Afterwards they help us trace over some high-frequency words and then we draw and colour a picture together. We love to learn about what our buddies are doing in their class, so every now and then, Mr. Gordon, encourages them to bring something that they have worked on in Room 13, to share with us. We think that they are very clever, and we love them.

2011: Fancy Feet Day

It was Fancy Feet day on Friday. Students were encouraged to walk to school, and it was a big success. Later, some senior students visited the classes and chose the best three fancy feet from each class. Isobel chose Carlos, Zara and James from our class. They went to the hall to have their photo taken, and they got a sticker and a tattoo as a prize. Well done to everyone who made their feet fancy.
