Friday 9th May
This week the children have continued to explore our Talk for Writing text of Owl Babies. They enjoyed making their own owl masks and practising moving like the verbs they heard in the text: swooping, gliding and flapping.
On 8th May the children joined the whole school in attending a virtual assembly commenmorating V.E.Day. They were very interested and asked lots of thoughtful questions.
In Maths, the children used 2D shapes to create shape paintings.
Each class has been excited to receive a pot of caterpillars and each day we have been observing how they are changing.
Friday 2nd May
This week the children were very excited to have two very special visitors: a pair of owls from Barleylands Farm Park in Billericay! The children learnt lots of new facts and were amazed when the birds swooped over their heads without making a sound. They asked lots of thoughtful questions and the owls prompted some painting and even the creation of an owl sanctuary in the role play area.
As the weather warmed up the children really enjoyed their outside P.E. lesson, practising skills ready for Sports Day, including working in a pair to do the three-legged race!
Friday 25th April
The children have returned from their Easter holidays full of smiles and enthusiasm for the new term. We have certainly packed a lot into a 4 day week! On Tuesday we celebrated World Earth Day and learnt about ways that we can all make a difference and help look after and protect our beautiful planet. The children made posters showing what they had learned and earned another stamp in their Agents of Change passports. On Wednesday they were fascinated to learn about St'George and how he is the patron saint of England. This inspired lots of shield making and retelling the story with puppets. In Literacy the children thought about instructions and helped draft some which detailed how to plant a seed. Then they followed the instructions to plant their own seeds. In maths the children have been busy learning about the composition of teens numbers. They have enjoyed showing their understanding through lots of different games. The children were inspired to create garden centre role play areas and this gave them the opportunity to further explore their writing and number understanding. They wrote signs and price lists and 'paid' for items using numicon.
