    Check back in December for the next oral language theme. 

1st class had a very exciting day today as Auntie Poppy came to visit us. However, she did not come alone, Ed was with her! We all had great fun listening to Ed and Auntie Poppy.

Ed is fantastic at telling stories!. Many children got to join Ed and Auntie Poppy at the top of the classroom and help Ed decide what rooms were in his house. The children were great at explaining to Ed what items you would find in each room.  Ed loved talking about his house today!

Ed set the children a task of creating their own house and we all had great fun doing this. The children’s houses are hanging up outside their classroom for anyone to come and see. I’m sure they would only love to describe their house to anyone who comes along.

 A huge thank you to all the mums, dads and helpers who came in today to help us out. Auntie Poppy will be joining us in 1st class again for the next two Thursdays (1st and 8th of December) We cannot wait to have more fun with Ed and Auntie Poppy.
