What have we been doing so far in class this half term?

For the next 3 weeks in literacy we are going to be creating our own adventure story. Our display helps us remember all the different parts of the story that need to make a fantastic adventure story.








We have started a very exciting topic in music. We are learning about rythmn! The children are progressing so well that we are learning to read music properly. We are learning to clap rhythms using crotchets, minims and semibreves.












After a lot of hardwork we have completed the 'Autumn Leaf' display. It looks wonderful in the corner of our classroom. Well done to the whole of 3 Cherry for making such a massive effort!


A Letter From The Wicked Witch of the West to Dorothy by Green and Blue Group

Land of Oz
9th November 2007
Dear Dorothy,
I am writing to you because I am very upset and angry. Last week you landed in Oz on top of my sister in your enormous house. You MURDERED her! I am extremely upset. What I can't understand is why did you murder her?? She hadn't done anything to you, she was a good, white witch. We only practiced good magic. I need to know, did you murder her on purpose or was it an accident?

Another thing I am very upset about is that you STOLE from my sister. How dare you!! She had a pair of gorgeous ruby, red slippers which were a present from our father. I have followed you all round the Land of Oz trying to get them back. But you just keep calling me a Wicked Witch and not talking to me. My face only looks evil and green because my Mum drank some weed killer instead of her medicine when she was pregnant with me. You keep running away from me with your friends the Tin Man, Scarecrow and Lion. I am not wicked, I am a good, white witch, I am just upset that you murdered and stole from me. Please, please may I have the slippers back, they are the last thing I have to remind me of my sister and are very precious to me.

Please return my sisters ruby red slippers as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully

Ellie
