The children had a very exciting start to the week when we took ourselves on an adventure to try and experience what it might have been like for the football team of boys who were trapped in the cave for 17 days. The children took themselves underneath the stage where it was very dark and there were also some spooky cave sounds. we thought about messages that we would like to send home before we listened to some of the real notes that the boys sent from the cave. the children then wrote some of their own fantastic notes home to their loved ones!

This week in our learning for life we considered the importance of reading people's facial expressions and understanding that sometimes jokes can go too far. the children were given an emotion and were challenged to show that emotion on their face. as well as this the children were asked to consider what they loved about tara pattana before thinking about things that would make our school a nightmare place to be. as a year group, we all understand the role we each play in ensuring that tara pattana international school is a fun and safe place to be for everyone.

we are continuing to work hard everyday in class on our mathematical fluency and our current focus is upon times tables and number bonds to 20, 100 and 1,000. we would really encourage you to challenge your children at home and use this brilliant maths resource which is free and can be found at https://www.topmarks.co.uk/maths-games/daily10.
