WOW! What a week!
We started our week with a WOW! day, thinking about our
Newbridge 50, ‘Putting on a Show’. The
children spent the morning doing lots of different drama activities using their
voices, bodies and imaginations. After
lunch, the children watched a stage version of the well known story ‘The
Gruffalo’ and were treated to popcorn in the interval! Afterwards we discussed the acting, props and
costumes. They are now well equipped to take on their roles in the Christmas
performance.
Today the children have been given their scripts for the Christmas
performance which they have begun to learn.
Please encourage your child to practise at home, not only to remember
their lines, but also to look for cues so that they know when to say them! This is another opportunity for the children
to read and practice expression, so please record this in their Reading Record
books (this can count towards their weekly reading target of three times a
week). Please remember that the children
need to be responsible and keep their scripts in their book bags so they are
always in school when we need them.
We look forward to seeing you all in a few weeks time for
the performances … not long to go!
