We have started the new term with a story written by Tony Mitton: 'Down by the Cool of the Pool'.
Children listened to the story and worked on remembering the characters and their actions.
Take a peek:
"I can dance but not like you, said the sheep. I can stamp!"
"I can dance but not like you, said the duck. I can flap"
During our yoga session children have worked on improving their favourite 'Cobra Pose'. Just as the snake changes, we are constantly changing and transforming ourselves. This pose is a great way to build upper body strength.
Shoulders down, neck long...
Palms stay on the ground.....
...and keep on breathing!
In maths we compared two set of objects and used the language of more and fewer. We picked two domino's tiles and placed them in the correct column.
We had a musical end to the week this week, following the introduction to a Glockenspiel, we decided to have a go ourselves...
Some of us made our own music using the magnetic letters to create a tune. Others challenged ourselves to play Old MacDonald that Miss Welby had put on the board.
We also enjoyed listening to our new stories on CD.
Some messy play, what fun a tub of gloop can be...
'Look you can pick it up and then it melts.'
Congratulations to Martha our Golden Book winner this week for such an improvement in your writing. We have loved seeing how busy you have been at home too.
Have a lovely weekend everyone, don't forget if you can save milk bottles, plastic wrappers, plastic lids and yoghurt pots for next Friday we would be very grateful.
We are very proud of Martha for getting her first golden book. We are more proud however of the progress her and her friends have made since they have started at Wenhaston Primary, and the close friendships they have made. Well don class 1!
