Drumming with Shabbia
This week we were all lucky enough to have Shabbia from African Drumming at our school.
Shabbia played for the children, exciting them with his rhythms and incredible volume.
Next he got all the children up and had them moving and dancing together.
Finally Shabbia played with our drum groups.
The children all had a wonderful session with Shabbia.
Song
On a Friday we read poems and songs for our class reading.
Songs and poems are great for looking at rhyming words.
They are also wonderful for inferring, where we try to work out what else the author wants us to know and understand, without actually having to say it.
This week we read and moved to our 'Shape Up Song'.
The children got right into this song, enjoying the movement as we sang.
Friday's Disco Night
Friday night saw our first Disco Night, beautifully run by the Parent Club.
The children who were lucky enough to go had an absolute ball!
The hall was dark, the music loud and the coloured lights flashing.
The boys were all looking very cool.
The girls twinkled in their party dresses.
The glow stick bangles were a great hit!
They stopped half way to refuel those tanks with chips and a box of juice.
A wonderful time was had by all!
