Fun in literacy

We had fun this week for literacy with our Hansel and Gretal book. The children started the lesson playing roll on the wall where they had to work as a team to take in in turns to look quickly at a picture and try and draw the exact same thing on their paper. They then had to follow Hansel and Gretals written instructions to get around their maps.

World Book day in Crew Jones.

The children looked amazing in Crew Jones today! We enjoyed sharing our love of reading and had fun with lots of different activities. We drew pictures of ourselves dressed up in our costumes, We did a traditional tale quiz and even followed instructions carefully do draw a picture of stage SpongeBob character.

Exploring 3D shapes

This week in reception the children have been thinking about what 3D shapes are the best to use for building and why. There has been lots of talk about the properties and similarities and differences of real life objects. Here are some of our special moments so far..

Working hard this week!

Levi and Freddie have blown me away this week working hard using their knowledge of 3D shapes to build. I have been so impressed with both boys confidence in reading in our phonics lessons too. I couldn’t be more proud!

3d Shapes

This week we have been exploring the properties of 3d shapes. We enjoyed exploring if towers were stable or unstable and giving reasons why. The children were excellent exploring the new mathematical vocabulary and using it in their explanations.

Pancake Day!

We had a great time celebrating pancake day yesterday. We read a story called ‘Mr Wolfs Pancakes’ which had a funny ending. We then did a fun pancake dance and tasted pancakes. We enjoyed discussing our favourite pancake toppings and designing our own pancakes!
