Presentation Time

This term, children in Robin class will have an opportunity to participate in ‘Presentation Time’ every Friday. Some Year 3 children took part in ‘Presentation Time’ last year, but this will be a new activity for the Year 2 children. This will involve them choosing a subject that they are interested in and talking about it with their peers for up to 10 minutes. In English, children are encouraged to be competent in the arts of speaking and listening and this opportunity provides them with a dedicated time to practise these valuable skills.

The subject of the presentation is up to them. It might be that they want to talk about a sport that they participate in, something that they love to do at home, pets that they help to look after, the list is endless! Your child can bring in objects related to their presentation for the rest of the class to look at and I will ensure that they get these back at the end of the day.

They will be asked to ‘sign up’ on the presentation clipboard. Children will get a slip to let them know the date of their presentation. I will be encouraging Year 3 children to sign up first so that they can demonstrate.

In the past I have found that children have always been very keen to participate, but please let me know if you need further clarification or have any concerns. This should be fun and not stressful!

I look forward to hearing all about your child’s interests during their presentation.

Making sandwiches using instructions! Yummy!

Robin Class can give directions using north, east, south and west. They made routes on the playground giving directions for their friends to follow. They also practised using compasses.

PE Sessions

Mrs Clarke from Hadleigh High School visited us at the end of April where children in years 1 and 2 enjoyed some great PE sessions with her. We really enjoyed having her with us for the morning and hope she will visit us again soon.

Fun for everyone at The Suffolk Owl Sanctuary

The children had great fun collecting the resources they needed for their masterpieces from the school grounds.
