  Fri 04 Nov 2022

  Year 3 have been discussing all the things we enjoy about the internet, and how to stay safe on the internet.

   

  We have looked at what passwords are, why they are important and how to create a strong password.

• Coop Food Share

  Fri 04 Nov 2022

  We are so pleased to be involved in the Coop Food Share.

   

  Mrs Turnbull does a fantastic job in sharing the food with the Radipole community. Not only does it avoid unnecessary waste, it is also a huge help to so many who struggle financially.

   

  Thank you Mrs Turnbull! You are a star

  

• Year 1 - Traditional Tales

  Thu 03 Nov 2022 Mrs Ireland

  We have started looking at some Traditional Tales. Goldilocks was our first story. We have re-told the tale and written some sentences about the events in the story. We have worked to include capital letters and full stops in our writing.

  We have also learnt this week how to add -er and -est to words to compare. eg strong, stronger, strongest. 

   

  Do you have any Traditional Tales at home?

  What are the characters names?

  Which is your favourite story?

  How do the stories often start and end?

• Year 5 - A Trip to the Pavilion

  Tue 01 Nov 2022

  This week Year 5 had a fantastic trip to the Pavilion to listen to an amazing storyteller, Daniel Morden, at the Children's Book Show. We thoroughly enjoyed his storytelling and his love for the English Language! A wonderful experience picturing a whole story only through words. Every child also left with a copy of Tales from the Caribbean by Trish Cooke.

We practised writing in runes, played traditional games, took part in an Anglo-Saxon legal trial and learnt how to use different types of weapons and shields.

  This term we have tried to get more familiar with  'Purple Mash'. 

  We have learnt how to log on and change our own avatars. Searching for things has been fun, and we have explored staying safe on the internet. We have had a great time using the drawing tools and trying to save our own work.

• The Radipole Way

  Fri 21 Oct 2022

  Well done to all the children who received certificates in assembly today for showing The Radipole Way.

   

  Not only did we have all our learning dinosaur certificates to hand out, we also had 37 certificates for all those children who took part in the Summer Reading Challenge (run by Dorset Libraries).

   

  We also our very first Key Stage 2 Word Millionaire certificate (a child who has read over a million words this half term). Keep those quizzes on Accelerated Reader going, and hopefully we will have lots more Word Millionaires.
