Class PM 2010-2011

Thursday 14th July 2011 Class Work Assembly
Our class had a great time presenting our final work assembly of topics we have covered over the last 8 weeks. All the team were well organised and prepared their work carefully. Over the year I have tried to let the children "run" their assembly. As a final assembly for this year and cribbing a little idea from Mr Swallow we decided that I would become a member of the audience and the children would do all of the assembly. We nominated a Narrator (Charlotte) and then group by group we ploughed through chunks of the work created. It was fabulous to see as you could see the change in all of the children: confidence, audibility, and no fuss smooth transition.
All of the children have come a long way through the year. A very proud moment.
The Assembly Programme:

  • Live Science - Hatching Butterflies
  • Conisbrough Castle - Prezi Presentation
  • Castle Group - Making Models
  • Spooky Castle Story - Big Write/Word
  • Castle Adventure - Big Write/Word
  • Learning Postcard - Self Target Setting
  • New Species of Butterfly - Non-Fiction
  • Walking Guided Reading Group - Powerpoint
  • Opinion: Should children make Models - VCOP linked

Normally assemblies take between 15-25 minutes. After several nudges to speed up we finished 40 minutes later. I am sure they could have talked for an hour!
