Today in Aspen Class the pupils had fun learning how to play our new Ukeleles.
First the children listened to a song called ‘Hey you, what you gonna do?’. Next, they created their own version of the song and accompanied it with their Ukeleles. They then performed it to their friends in class.
They all had so much fun and sounded fabulous.
Here are some photographs of our children enjoying their Christmas lunch.
The Elm Park choir sang their hearts out on Thursday evening alongside Benhurst choir to celebrate the Christmas lights being turned on. They sang beautifully and got everyone in the festive spirit!

In Ash Class we are playing Sum Dog Maths and we are enjoying playing with it. We all have a test when we go on it for the first time. we all have our own person that you can design. You can get digital money by playing the games and sometimes if you play loads of games you get 100 free coins. If the house is open you can go in and get better clothes and decorate your very own garden.

In maths we are doing fractions. We learnt that if you have a pizza and you want half of it you cut the pizza into two pieces and just take one piece. If you want a third of a pizza you cut the pizza into three pieces and take one piece.
Our challenges were mild = easy, spicy = middle, hot = difficult and super hot is very difficult.

Column Method
In year 3 we are doing column method in Maths. Here are the steps. One, put the bigger number up and the small number on the bottom and remember to put an add sign or take away sign next to the sum . Next step put a line under the sum and write the answer under the line . Step 3 put tens units and hundreds and maybe thousands and do the units first to get the right answer. If you are doing adding you can put the numbers any way round you want but if you are doing take away you can not do it as you will get the wrong answer.

In year three our maths is about column addition. If I am talking about subtraction let’s say the numbers 12 and 5. You have hundreds tens units you put 12 on tens and units because the 1 has to go on the ten and the 2 has to go on units. The answer is 17.

In year 3 we are learning about column addition. The first thing we have to remember is to make sure that the numbers are all in line and that you have an add or take away sign. We have to add the units first and then add the tens column. If you have a hundred number and a tens number you have to put the hundreds number in to the hundreds column and and put the tens number in to the tens column.

This week the whole school have been decorating their own poppies. Most of the time we paint the poppies red because it is the classic colour of poppies and on Flanders Field when they started to grow it looked like a flood of the blood from the soldiers who died in battle. This year we got to paint purple poppies because they are for all of the animals that were killed in the wars like dogs, horses and pigeons. We also got to use a variety of techniques of how to decorate it like using a cotton bud and paint or felt tips. This year is a very special year because it is 100 years since World War 1 ended.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
In Ash class we are writing a story about Charlie and the chocolate factory . I think everyone knows Charlie and the Chocolate factory because its famous by Roald Dahl. Just remember that you need to watch both movies because there is a new one and an old one.
We are reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in class. My favourite part of the book is where they all go in the chocolate room and eat every thing in that room.

The golden ticket winners
In Ash class we have been reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Charlie Bucket, Verucca Salt, Mike TV, Violet Beauregard and Augustus Gloop were golden ticket winners which meant that they could go to the Chocolate Factory owned by Willie Wonka and see what it is like to make chocolate.
Charlie was very poor and was very excited when he got his golden ticket. He decided to take Grandpa Joe with him to the factory. When they got to the factory Willie Wonka put on a performance it went well . then they went in the factory . The first room they went in was the chocolate room . In the chocolate room Augustus gloop was the last person to go in the group because he was scooping up the chocolate river.
