Lots of words

Our word puddles are getting very very long now!!!

Beatrix Potter

Teacher's favourite of all time books when she was a little girl were Beatrix Potter's books.
We are reading lots of her stories in school. We like her because she is an author but also an illustrator.

Beatrix Potter (28 July 1866 – 22 December 1943) was an English author, illustrator, natural scientist and conservationist best known for her imaginative children’s books featuring animals such as those in The Tale of Peter Rabbit which celebrated the British landscape and country life.

Making sentences

Today we made lots of sentences. Some children made some very funny sentences also.
This would be a great activity to practice at home. We love to beat the clock and find the words of the sentence teacher called out before time runs out!
