About harvest in French
In French with Mrs Knipe, Year 4 Robins learned “Pomme de reinette” which is a song about apples – quite appropriate as its harvest time.
They wrote the words into their books and decorated them.
Getting annoyed!
During circle time with Mrs Knipe, Year 4 Robins were discussing what we should do when we get annoyed – instead of reacting and making the wrong choice.
The Robins came up with some good ideas.
