We loved being invited to the Sunflowers French themed café this week. We were effective contributors and tried lots of new foods. We also explored enjoying some French music and dancing.

Mexican Music
We have been having lots of fun exploring Mexico through our new theme. Today we listened to mariachi music, and played along with our own instruments.
We were effective contributors through playing along with our own instruments and were successful learners as we explored two new instruments- Guitars and Drums!
The Daisies have been learning a new song at music called ‘We’re Going Around The World’ as an introduction to their new theme. All pupils have enjoyed coming along to do music in our music room and being able to explore and play a variety of percussion instruments. We have been learning some key signs and actions for our song as well as playing the claves, castanets and clackers to accompany the tune. Hayden also enjoyed performing a solo for his class which we managed to get on video too.

On Friday we were all Confident Individuals when taking part in races with the Sunflowers class. We had to move around and under obstacles, crawl through tunnels, and follow the arrows to follow the course. We had lots of fun!

We have to ran, went under a parachute, threw a ball in a net, went in between cones, punched the punch bag and scored a goal to finish.

Red Nose Day
Today was Red Nose Day. Some of the boys came in wearing red. We watched the YouTube video “put a nose on it” by Singing Hands. We went to the atrium with all the other infant classes and had a dance. We played Red Nose Day corners with the different Disney characters on the t-shirts and also had an nose and spoon race. The boys also tried on Red Nose Day glasses and a nose.

WBD – Author visit
We had a special visitor come into school today. Greta Yorke and her friend Moira came to Willowbank today to read Greta’s book “The Tartan Witch”. The whole school got to listen to Greta and Moira tell the story about the tartan witch. Greta had also organised some lovely activities related to the book for the children to do after listening to the story. The activities were : exploration of the characters from the book, creating our own tartan using special wooden blocks with different lines on them, a matching game and a potion station. Everyone really enjoyed listening to the story and were effective contributors when engaging with the activities.
