It's been an interesting few weeks in the SonicMattC world. Two weeks ago a company called Diversions came in and turned three classes in to well dressed Tudors. Naturally, they all had to dance. Perhaps not quite as naturally but certainly expected, I had to dance too. I don't think any videos were made of the moment to be circulated around on U-Tube... I didn't get to dress up as a Tudor though, not this time. The photo I have of when I did dress up as a Tudor gentleman shall remain safely hidden for now. The Tudor section in MattInEducation will be updated soon - we have loads of questions to answer - I must remember to copy them in to the website.
Last Wednesday was an exciting time. It snowed! (See MattInTheGarden - January - to see the harsh winter snow) I was onbreak duty that day too! I don't think the children understood when I asked them not to throw compacted lumps of ice around the playground, but they did manage to restrain themselves (mostly!) My class settled down that day to write some snow poetry, and did a good job too! I should really publish some of their poems on this website. I'll add that job to the list...
Last Friday, even though we're all doing a round of QCA tests this coming week (a round of cheers and applause ALMOST went up around the classroom) they still got some homework. But it wasn't any ordinary homework. They had to think up some mnemonics for the difficult words we need to spell in our class. The aardvark is in control of all this. You should see the fruits of our labours appearing soon in MattInEducation - Aardvark Mnemonics, with sound recordings of their mnemonics! You don't know what a mnemonic is? Quickly, click on to the website...
