Monsters have arrived at Hogwarts

I opened the door to my bedroom and saw a cute little creature bouncing on my bed. He’s going to be in trouble, you’re not allowed to jump on beds in my house. He stopped jumping and stood there starring at me with his one big eye, while his other two eyes looked around the room. Freaky! His green body with a white tummy and white horns, glowed in the dark like a night light in my dark room. I could see that he had orange busy hair on his big green head. I wonder how he keeps his balance with a head so large. He looks friendly with his toothy grin. He has his arms out; I think he wants a hug! He starts walking towards me with his hoof like feet. He reaches his arms up to me for a hug. I pick him up and he snuggles in. I think he’s going to make a great secret friend.

Science Fair

Over the next week we are going to be talking lots about Science Fair.

Science Fair is your ASPIRE for this term and you need to get started on it NOW! 

 The first thing you need to do is decide on what you want to do. What will be your question you want to answer?

Where to start? Keep thinking all the time. While watching TV, doing the dishes, having a bath. Think to yourself.

"I wonder if..."

"I wonder what would happen if ..." 

"What if I made a .... to help me ..."

Look on the internet also at science fair ideas.

Welcome back Muggles

We have had a great first week in Room 10.

On Monday Mrs Cooper brought in a delivery for the students that had been sent from Hogwarts.

The Room 10 students had been selected to take part in a Muggle recruitment programme.

The had to receive their house from the sorting hat. Over the term they will be gaining points for their house buy completing their tasks in their spell books correctly and keeping their book work up to date.

On day one they had a Cupboard under the stairs task to complete. 

What did you think Muggles?

We are really looking forward to hearing what animal you have chosen for your pet, should you pass the course and get accepted to HOGWARTS that is.
