It doesn’t make sense to me to give children lists to learn where all the words have the same suffix grapheme. The difficulty I see is in choosing which suffix grapheme to apply. So just thinking where this fits in to the teaching.

Yep and really feeling it with now 3 year groups and new initiatives.

I would love more consideration of mixed-age classes to happen. There are so many potential benefits but it seems you are constantly pushed towards squeezing in each years groups work.

Amazing thank you. Sorry a bit slow on the response. Enjoying those last moments of summer! Now to work out how to DM on here?!

Hidden figures and Curiosity the mars rover are fabulous if you’re linking to yr5 space. I adapted from literacy tree planning which was helpful.

We have used this to write setting descriptions, 2 contrasting ones looking at how important the choice of vocabulary is for creating the atmosphere and then section of narrative including dialogue.

I’d be interested to hear more about outdoor learning that you do with UKS2. Please tell?

I previously played cornet and flugel horn. Rockchoir is great a national organisation and no needed to be able to read music.

Harris Burdick, Hugo Cabret, The Nowhere Emporium, Curiosity (mars rover) I love the picture books that can be used in UKS2.

I sing in Rockchoir. I don’t think taxi driver to teenager counts as a hobby! Previously, and hopefully again one day, I played in Brass bands.

I keep asking…..but still in Year 6 with more added each year. Next year is the first with 4/5 and 6!

Hi, just joined up this morning. Hoping to find fellow primary teachers again.

Just finished. Really
Enjoyed this light touch on Greece and archeological history. Only in the summer holidays do I really manage to read adult books! In to a couple of KS2 books next. #eduskyprimary #booksky
