Week beginning 21.11.16

So this week has seen Little Miss Muffet and Incy Wincy spider entering the scene.
Spiders have been all over our classroom throughout the week: in the water tray, at the maths table and in the writing area....not to mention the REAL spiders in the outdoor area...!
Have a look at some of the activities we have done:

Making play dough spiders

 All children made a spider and they all looked so different. Well done everyone!

 

 

Making real and pretend cakes has all the ingredients for creative and mathematical learning opportunities, so here we are making cheese spider shaped scones.....

 

Mixing the ingredients was a sticky job..."I make cakes with my mummy at home".

 

 

Cutting the cheese scones with our special spider cutter. "It feels like play dough".

Ready for Mrs Kett to bake

Success! Looked good and tasted delicious.

Best part of the baking process...

"I like the crunchy legs."

Yum yum...

 

Our play rehearsals are well and truly underway now and we have some budding actors amongst us.  Our children have also enjoyed our Nursery Rhyme themed role play area. 

Here we are bandaging legs...Poor Humpty

 

We have also enjoyed lots of other nursery themed learning in class, below are a group of children playing an Incy Wincy counting game.  Lovely team work and cooperation.

 

 

We are also working extremely hard in our phonics session, one group have learnt the 'ee, ai and oo' sounds this week and here we are using them to write words.

 

 

 

Congratulations to Lucian our Golden Book winner this week, for being such a good friend to everyone in Class 1.

 

Letters about what your child needs to wear in the play will be coming home next week.
