Christmas is coming

By mrsswaine

We had our final rehearsal with the conductor of the Big Sing Concert, Mr. John Hancorn, who was full of praise for our quality of singing, number of children attending and enthusiasm for the musical Baa! that we have prepared. Final details have been communicated to you by letter and we are all set to go on Tuesday 2 December. It will be a great day and a wonderful precursor to our own KS2 Christmas Concert. Christmas is definitely on its way, with Advent beginning on Monday.

Homework this week is to learn two final songs that we have been preparing, we are almost there with them, and to plan and draw a storyboard for a story under five headings: 1 Opening, 2 Build up, 3 Problem, 4 Resolution and 5 Ending. We have been working on this form of story structure called a ‘Story Mountain’ in class. The children will then write the whole story under timed conditions next week.
