Y2 work on sentence openers.

Check out the carefully constructed sentences written by a group of Y2 children.

They were writing sentences which open in range of ways - with phrases that give description or tell the reader where or how something is happening.

They then moved on to the challenge of writing sentences which open with a verb phrase.

Can you think of a sentence that starts with a verb? How would you punctuate your sentence?

Love the hard work Y2 - keep it up!!!

World Book Day.

Thursday 3rd March was world book Day. We were invited by St. Joseph's, Wetherby, one of our network of schools, to join in their celebrations.

They were lucky enough to be visited by the Leeds Book Awards author, Andrew Newbound. Four of our Y6 pupils took part in a workshop with the author focused on expanding the children's vocabulary.

The 'Word Wizard' then signed the children's copies of his book - Demon Strike.

They also had their photographs taken by the local newspaper which appeared in the Wetherby News last Friday.

Have you read Demon Strike? If so, let us know what you thought of it.

Dancing at the Mandela Centre.

On Tuesday 8th March, one of our Y6 pupils went to perform a dance that he has been learning with the RJC dance company at the Mandela Centre in Chapeltown.

Joseph has been working on the dance for a number of hours with children from other schools in Leeds.

He stood out within the group and never put a foot wrong... another proud moment for Fieldhead Carr!

Keep following the Inclusion Blog!!!

There will be more posts with photos of fantastic events we have been part of  coming very soon...

Interschool Quiz Championship 2011

This morning saw two more teams from Fieldhead Carr entering the Interschool Quiz Championship 2011. The two teams were made up of boys and girls from Y3, 4, 5, & 6 and they had to work together to answer general knowledge questions to earn a place in the next round of the competition.

Although we did not take first place and therefore did not make it through to the next round we did our selves proud and had a fantastic time in the process. Whilst we did not get the highest scores we did answer some questions correctly that no-one else managed.  

If you have taken part in one of our Quiz Clubs, let us know what you thought about the experience.

Well done to all those who took part and thank you to all the parents and extendede family mambers who came to the Heat at Rosebank Primary to support our children!!!!

Who will be selected for the teams next year, I wonder????
...  it could be YOU!!!!!
