Thankyou to all the parents for coming to our ‘stay and play’ session. The children really enjoyed sharing the classroom with you and showing you all their favourite places to play and learn.
The children have loved exploring the story of Owl Babies. We have learnt the story and actions to help us with this. We sequenced the story and talked about the beginning, middle and end. We have been exploring Owl activities and pretending to be owls. We made feather crowns to help us to pretend to be owls and used leaves to make an owl collage.
We finished the exploration of the story by changing the story. Miss Carrick’s class changed the owls to foxes and Mrs Wilkinson’s class changed the owls to hedgehogs.
After eating all of Mrs Silverwood’s ingredients for porridge on Wednesday she didn’t have any left to make her porridge for breakfast on Thursday! So some of our superstars wrote out shopping lists so she knew what she needed to buy. Well done to Myla and Mia. They were able to tell us what they had written on their lists!
F2 LOVED playing out in the rain today. There was splashing and lots of descriptions of the weather and how much fun they were having.
Today some of our children worked together to draw out maps of everything that they thought Goldilocks might see on her walk through the wood. They came up with all sorts of ideas; trees, flowers, grass, the three bears, some birds and… a dragon!
We had some extremely ticklish toes in F1 today as we started our fabulous, but secret, creations!
We love following the children’s interests. Some of the children had noticed the cobwebs covered in dew early this morning. So we went on a spider and cobweb hunt around the garden, which led to so much new language, learning and adventure.
Freddie found two snails outside today. He was very excited to watch them and even collected a magnifying glass so he could get a better look at them.
Other children came to look too but Freddie stayed with the snails until they were feeling brave enough to come out of their shells. He watched them crawl away over the mud and up the wooden wall. Freddie thought they were may be going to find some lunch!
