Class 1

Today we met ferrets, a snake, a skink, giant snails and stick insects! We learnt more about them and we got to hold them if we wanted to.

World culture day! 

We have spoken a little about different cultures and respecting each other.

We have said hello in lots of different languages, Norah taught us how to count in Spanish and showed us her Spanish learning, we have sang and we are getting ready for a few world culture day…

Today Class one had phonics outside. We loved it! We practiced our sounds, read words with no colour and impressed Mrs Coleman-Harris by finding the kidder digraphs and trigraphs, we we write words with sounds in that we know! 

We enjoyed taking our maths learning outside today in the sunshine!

We have been starting to learn more about numbers past 10 this week. We used maths equipment to build 10,11,12,13. We talked about the part/whole. Some of us even went beyond 13! One child even found they had made 70 with 7…

Nursery built a giant snake! Then they used tweezers to pinch pom-poms and decorate the snake! Super fine motor development!

Reception have been painting jungles using watercolours in their art book. We painted vines, trees, swamps, bogs and long wavy grass. 

We have been learning about eagles and creating our own eagle art work using different materials.

Class 1 loved their visit from Ralph and Mrs Gethin today. We learnt all about caring for a dog! 

We have really enjoyed learning about pets this week! Today we met Frank the turtle and we learnt all about his needs and how to care for him. 

We have drawn our own maps of school and hidden Easter eggs for the Easter Bunnies to find! They can follow our map and search for eggs on an egg hunt! 

We are using water colours to paint a background of sky and grass onto our spring Easter eggs. We love painting in the sunshine! 

Our caterpillars are starting to build their chrysalis! We can’t wait to see what happens next.
