3NL - Emotions

In class today we were looking at different colours representing different emotions. We then painted a colour wheel using our handprints.







We had lots of angry, furious, scared, joyful, delighted and worried children!


Can you guess who was feeling what emotion?

3NL - Star Writers

As a class we have been studying all of the different emotions portrayed by the characters in the 'Take One Picture.' So for this week the class had to write a poem describing an emotion.


Congratulations to Cara, Joshua and Mason who are our star writers!




Happy


Happy is bright yellow
It tastes like bright pink candy.
Happy smells like melting marshmallows
And it looks like a rainbow blooming from the sky.
Happy sounds like loud laughter
It feels like a warm sunny day.


By Joshua




Anger


Anger is dark black...
It tastes like sweet revenge
It also smells like boiling blood.
Anger tasters like darkness oozing from the sky
It sounds like a killer robot screaming
It feels like someone has back stabbed you.


By Mason




Love


Love is full of rainbows and bright yellow and red.
It looks like chocolate hearts falling from the sky. The sky is as bright as the sun.
The taste is like melted marshmallows and pink candy floss.
It sounds like birds chirping and the grass swaying.
Happy smells of scrumptious sweets and loving lollipops.


By Cara

Reading Road & Bug club!

Have you been reading at home? Have you been on bug club? Have you signed your reading diary?


That's fantastic! You are well on your way to moving around the reading road.


The Suttons Primary Reading Road is a reading reward for children reading at home.


Every class from Year 1 - Year 6 will have a reading road in their classroom. Every time you read five times at home you get to move around it! If you reach the gold trophy visit Miss Staples on a Monday lunchtime and she will give you your reward! Last year we gave away over 50 new books as reading road prizes.

At the end of the year if you have moved around a significant amount of times you will be invited to a reward afternoon.

Here are some pictures of reward afternoon last year.




Bug club

We are really lucky to be subscribed to an amazing reading service called bug club! On bug club there are some excellent books to read as well as bug club points to earn and interactive games.

This term teachers will be checking weekly to see who has read on bug club. If you read on bug club you will receive a star for each day you have read. Please remember to write this in your reading record so it can count towards the reading road!
