This week we have been revising all our sounds. We have been practising using flashcards and playing sounds games. We have also been writing all our sounds on our whiteboards.

This week in number we have started to learn about time. We talked about why we tell the time and we looked at all the clocks and watches in the classroom. We looked at the hour hand, the minute hand and o’clock. We then made our own clock. We wrote the numbers on small squares and made the hour hand and the minute hand and put them on our own clocks.

This week we didn’t just make a sandwich for Mr Gringling, we made our very own real sandwich! We talked about healthy fillings and what would be good to put inside a sandwich. We chose our own fillings, made our sandwich and then tasted it. We then recorded our thoughts. We also wrote instructions on how to make a healthy sandwich.

As Valentine’s day was this week, we made cards. We painted our hand and put in on a pink heart. We wrote a special message inside to someone we love.

We also made hanging hearts from pipe cleaners decorated with beads.
