Hi everyone,

Journey Stick Challenge 

Have you ever seen a journey stick before? They are a great way to record one of your walks. All you need is a stick and some rubber bands or string. On your walk, collect objects as you go. Make sure the adult with you says it is safe to pick up. Attach them to your stick. When you are back home, retell the story of your walk using your stick. Can you write it as a recount? 

Remember time language such as: First, second, after, finally.

Growing up: Poetry 

Over the next couple of week, we are going to think about the theme' Growing up'. This is in order to reflect on this year and to think about our next year in year 2. Look at the poems attached and explore the theme of 'Growing up'. Remember to share your work on the google classroom and through email.
