China and Chinese New Year
The boys in girls really enjoyed learning about China and how people celebrate Chinese New Year. Everyone got the opportunity to take part in a dragon dance to round off our visit to China. They had to think about how the dragon would move (up and down) and moving in time to the music.
France
Now that the class have finished learning about China we have moved onto France! One of the things the children were interested in learning about was French food and this fitted in nicely with pancake day. Here are some pictures of the children enjoying eating some ‘French Crepes’ which they made. We were then able to use this learning to write instructions on how to make crepes.
As well as all of this we have been learning about the French flag, the Eiffel Tower (something the children had highlighted an interest in) and we are beginning to learn some basic French greetings and how to count to 10.
