The Elves are Making Requests

The elves are arriving daily and bringing written requests for all sorts of things. The letters include tricky words and the new digraphs taught this week. It is funny how they know just what we are learning about. They must have known that we are looking at materials in science and about joining techniques in DT as lots of their requests were related to using different materials and using a variety of methods to secure these!

We have made little bags to contain boots and crowns and painted pictures to annotate. The Pioneers have built thrones and used the elves to help when finding one more in maths. The Pioneers are writing lists of elf names and elf items and this is so wonderful.

So much collaboration and consideration is happening. There is a lot to get to grips with when sharing resources and space and elves.

So much progress this week! Go Pioneers
