Yesterday morning, the Year 3s kick-started their new English focus, about a fantastic book called ‘Greenling’, completing some Black Out Poetry based on a poem called ‘Green Children’ by Jane Yolen.
Whilst reading the poem together, the children suggested and highlighted important vocabulary on each line, they then painted over the remaining, un-highlighted vocabulary and were left with their black out poem.
They are already intrigued about what the new text could be about and are asking lots of questions…
Hi, my name is Mr Farry, I still consider myself very much part of a great team in a great school, we really do ALL pull together to ensure the children complete a fantastic and enjoyable curriculum. I am still the P.E coordinator (a veteran now that I’ve joined the over 40s club), and still completely passionate about sport and my role in sport at Park. I am still actively involved external sports (both team and individual) and consider this essentially to maintaining a healthy body and mind. The children will tell you I’m still the jovial and humorous person I was when I joined the school, buy I’m simply four/five years older and ‘hopefully’ a little wiser, albeit with a few stray greys! My classroom is a busy place, with high expectations whilst still maintaining a nurturing environment, especially with the kind and generous Mrs Lucas by my side. The children, thus, continue to feel comfortable and content in their learning environment.
