Last week, the Year 1 pupils cast their own spell during their Read, Write, Inc. literacy learning. The boys tackled sentence building skills as the target was to create longer sentences. The book being covered 'The Spell' lead to a scavenger hunt for ingredients to throw into their cauldron. Armed with a witch hat, the boys took it in turns to add their ingredient and stir the mixture. They even had a chant to go along with the activity. Learning within a context makes the experience more memorable.
