Thank you @CostaCoffee Quedgeley for kindly donating cups for Year 1's trip to the local nature reserve. We sat enjoying a hot chocolate whilst listening to woodpeckers! It was a memorable experience that will really aid the children's writing this term. #Quedgeley #community

I am blown away by the children's Hundertwasser artwork this afternoon @beech_green Simple line techniques and bold colors look so effective! Can't wait to get them up on display!

There’s always something fun going on @beech_green . Today in our beautiful grounds we had cricket, gardening and maypole dancing clubs!

[Miss Thomas @MissThomasBG]

It's been a super busy week for Year 1. Some great activities with Y6 buddies...Learning to tell the time...Gardening club have been getting stuck into some weeding...in science we've investigated why trees have bark, amongst so many other things! Time for a rest this weekend!

[Miss Thomas @MissThomasBG]

Some fantastic science this afternoon, identifying trees and plants around our school.

Year 1 trip to @CotsWildTweets. An absolutely fabulous day out. What an asset Year 1 are to our school!

[Miss Thomas @MissThomasBG]

It's been such a busy term, I've hardly had time to tweet! Here's a selection of what Year 1 have been up to recently. A phenomenal amount of learning. They are just a super smart bunch ❤

[Miss Thomas @MissThomasBG]

Tagging some of my (and Year 1's) favourites! Really hope we can get some lovely inspirational snippets for the children 🙏

Today's elf antics!

@thosethatcan Couldn't agree more. I've had a couple of other professions before teaching. They all came with a "busyness" unlike another's "busyness". The rewards are unique too.

A note on safeguarding, for any trainees or newer teachers following me.

Report everything. Flag up everything. Filling in a safeguarding form is not "a big deal". Just do it. That thing you noticed that's "probably nothing" could be the key piece in a broader picture.

So many have failed #arthurlabinjohughes. How has this happened? Sorry, little one 💔

[Miss Thomas @MissThomasBG]

Eureka moments are why I love this job. Someone went from really struggling with the idea of part-part-whole, to fixing problems and absolutely smashing verbal reasoning questions this week ("the part can't be bigger than the whole") And we got to draw on the table!

Smidge stole our @numberblocks and held them to ransome! We had to guess which number block was in each parcel. We cracked it though and got to open them up. Phew!
