Lily: has impressed all of the adults in Class 4 this week with her hard work and mature attitude to learning. In her maths group with Mrs Storrs, Lily works hard every week to develop her mathematical fluency. She is sensible when using the equipment to support her learning and really gets involved with the tasks. Lily is always willing to give questions a go and it is great to see her confidence growing in her own abilities. She is a real pleasure to have in the group.

George: has really impressed in PE this half-term. Our unit in Class 4 is tag rugby and this is the first time many of the children have experienced this. It took a while for us to get used to passing the ball in a backwards direction as many sports pass the ball forwards - but this didn’t challenge George at all. He quickly picked up the passing technique and proudly demonstrated this to the rest of the class. He then developed this further by passing the ball at speed and in game situations. A definite rugby star of the future.

Reggie: The Class 4 team has been so impressed with the effort, thought and care that Reggie put into his diary writing from the perspective of Ray, a World War 1 soldier. His writing was mature, included all of the genre features of a diary and the way in which he had included the thoughts and feelings of the character brought goosebumps to both members of staff. He listened carefully during the input to ensure that he had included expanded noun phrases, conjunctions and fronted adverbials. A really impressive piece of writing, keep up this hard work Reggie.

Rosanna: has grown in leaps and bounds with her confidence over the last few weeks and we are so proud of her. She has been putting her hand up in all lessons to offer an answer and share her ideas. She has been getting involved in our learning and has been pushing herself to try the more difficult tasks. During a maths group with Mrs Storrs, Rosanna has been enthusiastic to learn, and has really impressed Mrs Storrs. Keep up the good work Rosanna, we are really proud.

Oscar: has quite literally been ‘on fire’ this week with his learning and has made a fantastic start to the Autumn 2 term. He has been enthusiastic in his learning, been putting his hand up to contribute to every lesson and during a group times table session with Mrs Storrs, really impressed with his eagerness to learn. In English, when writing in the perfect present tense, Oscar quickly realised that he needed to include the words 'has' or 'have' in every sentence and this has led to him writing some fantastic sentences about our book. Keep up the good work Oscar.

Elsa: for her fantastic non-chronological report on the digestive system. Elsa not only listened carefully in our English lesson to ensure that she was effectively including the taught grammatical features, but also ensured she had fully incorporated her scientific knowledge. Not only has Elsa impressed with her writing, but in every area of her learning. She listens carefully in every lesson and shows every day that she wants to learn. She carefully considers the questions asked, before giving well-thought answers showing the care that she puts into her work. She has also shown us what an amazing swimmer she is and is now swimming from the deep end without any aids. Keep up the good work Elsa, we are very proud.

Alessia: has adapted so quickly to life at St Anne’s. She has shown herself to be smiley, helpful and a good friend to all. She has worked incredibly hard since starting in Class 4 and is producing fantastic pieces of work. She takes pride in her learning and always wants to do her best.  What we are most proud of however, is the confidence she has gained during our swimming lessons. Initially, she was nervous to get into the pool and preferred walking in the water instead of swimming. She is now swimming the full length of the pool with only a pool noodle to help her. She is a great addition to Class 4. Keep up the good work.

Ewan: For his grown up and sensible attitude to Class 4. We have all been really impressed with the way in which Ewan has settled and matured in Class 4. On Tuesday, Ewan was the first to volunteer to fill in for an absence in the harvest festival, despite not knowing the part, and spoke loudly and confidently to his audience. During geography, Ewan supported his peers that had been at a music lesson, to understand the learning they had missed and to help them to complete their work. We are really proud of the way he has conducted himself and it is fantastic to see. What a role model to everyone in Class 4.

Harri: This week in Class 4 we have been writing a newspaper report based on our class book ‘There's a Rang-tan in my bedroom’. The children were tasked with ensuring that their newspaper had all the features required and some of the Class 4 expectations, such as fronted adverbials and punctuated speech. Harri rose to this occasion, and I was so impressed with her first piece of Class 4 writing. She ensured that she had included everything asked of her and carefully considered the sentences she had written before going back to improve them in the editing lesson. I can't wait to see more pieces of her writing.

Troy: has made a fabulous start to Class 4. He has been putting his hand up in every lesson to share his answers and couldn’t wait to get started on his Class 4 learning.  He is a bubble of positivity and comes into class every day with a smile on his face. Troy has been enthusiastic to share his reading with the adults in class and has been working really hard to score 100% on his accelerated reader quizzes. I am so proud of the start he has made to this school year.
