This week in Dosbarth 9

First of all a big congratulations to Jessica Beynon who was our Seren yr Wythnos last week . Da Iawn Jessica! Also well done to Mollie who brought in last week's most unusual yellow object. We've already had some lovely green objects in for this week.

This week I am sending a note home with some reading books to let you know which 'Tricky Words' we have been learning (Tricly Words are ones that don't follow conventional spelling patterns and are therefore 'tricky' for the children to sound out). I have also sent a Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check sheet home to help the children to learn these words.

Show and Tell on Friday will be group Gwyrdd who missed out last week. Next week will be group Melyn.

I have been talking to the children about our Victorian Day next week and they have come up with some lovely ideas to make it as realistic as possible. If anyone is stuck for ideas for costumes www.victorianschool.co.uk is an excellent website with lots of pictures that may help you. If anyone is unable to provide a costume please let us know and we will try to help. Also if anyone has any 'olden days' games or toys that we could borrow we would be really grateful - spinning tops, cup and ball, marbles etc.

Finally a huge diolch yn fawr to Nicole's granny who came into class today to talk to us about her school days. The children loved hearing about what she did at school and also about how different her home life was. They had lots of questions to ask and all listened really well.

See you all tomorrow

Mrs Utting-Lawson
