Literacy 10.12.24
We have been having a go at spelling 3 and 4 letter words. We have to say it, sound it out and make it then we need to check it.
2d shapes 9.12.24
We are continuing to learn about 2d shapes using them to create pictures.
We also used lollipop sticks to make different 2d shapes.
Let’s learn about 2d shapes 2.12.24
We have been learning about 2d shapes in the world around us. We look around our classroom for 2d shapes and we printed with 2d shapes. Come and have a look.
Literacy – the phoneme – o 27.11.24
Today we started learning about the phoneme o. We discovered it was a vowel and we have to use the word an when writing words starting with o in a sentence.
We were using the five fingered spelling rule at the teaching table to spell words containing o.
We also had fun making an octopus at the tuff tray ensuring it had 8 tentacles. We had a go writing It is an octopus using a capital letter, finger spaces and a full stop. We took a photograph of our work.
Come and have a look at our work!
Literacy – the phoneme – f 25.11.24
We are learning all about the phoneme f.
We painted and drew pictures of things beginning with f.
We have also been learning to write the letter – f.
We had a go at fishing for phonemes and CVC words. Look at the phonemes and words we caught!
Book week 18.11.24 Everyone read in class
Each day this week we will be taking time to read and look at a book from home or the class library. We talked about characters, plots, settings, authors and illustrators.
Look, we found a comfy and cosy place to read a book on our own.
We also made our own books and put them in the book corner for others to read.
15.11.24 Children in Need 
In our class we supported Children in Need by wearing everything spotty.
We had to read numbers and put the correct number of spots on Pudsey. We made Pudsey using playdough and we coloured in Pudsey and cut him out.
11.11.24 Our reading parents/carers workshop
Our parent/carers came in to participate in different reading activities with us and to learn about Bug Club. We had fun reading words and painting the picture or reading the word and making the item using play dough.
We also looked at the picture, sounded it out and found the letters to spell out the CVC words, then we wrote it.
For our target we had to read the word, spell it into elkinon boxes and then draw it.
11.11.24 Remembrance Day 
The children observed the 2 minutes silence for Remembrance Day and then we used chalk pastels to create poppy pictures. Take a look at our amazing art work. We used the pastels and then smudged the colour to create an effect in our artwork.

We have been learning to find the missing numbers within 10 and 20.
We have also been learning to write our numerals up to 20.
