2’s Room - Birthdays

We have had lots of fun this week in the 2’s room learning about birthdays and how we celebrate them. We enjoyed looking at photos of when we were babies and how much we have grown! We have enjoyed making cakes using the playdough and inserting candles into the dough and counting them. We have had another week playing with the flour, making cakes and making marks using our fingers. We have all explored the classroom and we even created a birthday cake using the interactive board. What a fun week we have had!

Pre School - Bear Hunt

In literacy this week we have continued exploring our story of We're Going on a Bear Hunt. We have now reached the dark forest and explored the different sounds we would hear in the forest, selecting pictures of the animals we would find. We used the sensory box to find hidden bugs and twigs. We created forest pictures, painting with twigs and leaves. We then went outside to make a bear cave, collecting twigs, leaves and recalling the story as we worked together to make the cave. I think the bear would be very happy.

Year 1 - Mastering Number

During our Mastering Number sessions this week Y1 have been looking at the numbers 6-10 and learning about how these numbers are made up of '5 and a bit'. The children have used the dice frames and rekenreks to demonstrate these numbers then completed the sentence stems ___ is the whole, 5 is a part and ___ is a part or 5 needs ___ to make ___ For example 7 is the whole, 5 is a part and 2 is a part. Or 5 needs 2 to make 7. The children have gained a really good understanding of these numbers and have worked hard. Keep up the good work Year 1!
