The Daisies class enjoyed their Christmas party in the PE hall. We played a range of party games including pass the parcel, Christmas corners and musical chairs. We also enjoyed dancing the hokey cokey. We finished with a few of our favourite PE activities including throwing and catching with the balloons and bouncing on the trampettes.

The Daisies class enjoyed today’s special Christmas activities. We had a special treat at the picnic benches, toasted marshmallows by the fire and Santa came a visit and gave us a present!

The Daisies class enjoyed designing their own Christmas jumpers. We used crayons to colour the jumpers in and then chose a Christmas tag to stick in the middle. Finally, we stuck gems and sequins on top to make it sparkle.

The boys in the Daisies class loved today’s baking activity where they got to make melted snowmen biscuits. They enjoyed mark making the marshmallow using the edible icing pens to make a snowman face. They spread icing sugar over digestive biscuits and placed the snowman’s head on top and then added buttons using smarties.
Most of the boys tasted some of the ingredients and enjoyed having their biscuits at snack the next day.

The Daisies class were using their literacy skills to match the Christmas picture to the correct initial sound. We were very good at doing this and liked using the SMARTboard.

The Daisies class enjoyed exploring today’s Christmas themed sensory activities. We had green filled ziplock bags that had a range of sequins and pom poms inside. The boys had to try squeezing the items around to make it look like a Christmas tree.
We also had a Christmas tree themed sensory tray with shaving foam and food colouring that we had a great time exploring.

The Daisies class were very responsible on today’s local area walk. We braved the snow to walk to our local post box. We posted our letters to Santa and are hoping they will make their way to the North Pole.

The Daisies class had great fun with our science experiment today. We decorated zip lock bags with snowmen faces. We added 3 teaspoons of baking soda to the centre of a piece of tissue paper and wrapped it up. We placed the tissue paper parcel in the bottom of the ziplock bag. Finally, we added a cup of vinegar and then had to be very quick to zip our bag up!
We observed the zip lock bag filling with air and puffing out. We absolutely loved this!
