Week Beginning 16th January

As part of our planning this week, one of the things we have been working on is shape recognition. To observe this, we went outside for a shape hunt to see what shapes we could find in the garden. many of the children participated in this, pointing out all the tyres as circles and locating squares, triangles and rectangles that they could see.

During the week we participated in some art activities using different shapes. The children showed enthusiasm with this, adding in different objects to paint with, telling us what shapes they had and showing creativity in them.

Another of our learning targets, is to identify the different parts of our bodies. So far we have done this through games such as Head Shoulders Knees and Toes, Simon Says and through drawing around one of the children. We then discussed all the different parts of our body, from our head to our toes and talked about what each part does and how they help Us.
