Step 1: We watched My Paper Boar tour with the rest of KS1. It was awesome!
Each year 2 class sang to KS1 today. They performed very well. We hope to repeat these kind of performances more often.
Step 5: A first try at improvising to Baa Baa Blues. It was really hard but this pupil has got the rhythm and used the recommended notes
