Getting to know our new teacher!

Hello everyone!

My name is Miss Ward and I will be teaching in Year 2 from January 2016. I would like to say a HUGE well done to Year 1 and 2, they performed their Christmas play brilliantly to the whole school today. Their costumes looked fabulous too!

 

Here is a sneaky peek of Adam, in his costume, ahead of the children’s final performances next week. He looks great!

We have completed a carousel of different activities this morning to help me to get to know the children. They have shared lots of interesting information about themselves and all the children were really engaged (especially with the beach ball activity!). Here is a class flower we made by drawing around our own hands, making beautiful, bright petals. The children had to choose five adjectives to describe themselves to write on the fingers, it looks great at the front of our classroom.

Another activity focused on what the children need to improve to help them achieve their full potential in Year 2. We had some brilliant contributions, some children want to improve their handwriting and lots have recognised how they can improve their behaviour during lesson time.

Finally, the children thought about what Miss Ward needs to do to help them to achieve their best in Year 2. Some children would like extra homework, and a few children wanted extra help with their spellings. I particularly liked Aaron’s contribution, which is to help him to be a star. These suggestions have all been noted and I will try my very best to help you achieve your potential.

I am now going to create our class bunting with all your lovely work from today. Don't worry if you were away today, we will make sure you get a chance to add your work to our displays. Have a great weekend and I will see you all next week,

Miss Ward.
