Gymnastics

I am discovering ways that I can link actions and skills to create
movement patterns and sequences. This has motivated me to
practise and improve my skills to develop control and flow.

I am developing skills and techniques and improving my level of
performance and fitness. HWB 1-22a

We have been learning different ways to balance, roll, travel and jump. We worked together on a variety of apparatus and helped each other to make sequences using the skills we learned.

The Great Kapok Tree

As part of our Rainforest topic we read the story – The Great Kapok tree. It tells the story of all the animals in the rainforest that are losing their homes and are dying because men are cutting down so many trees in the rainforest.

We were split into groups, and each group had to act out a part of the story.

I have experienced the energy and excitement of presenting/performing for audiences and being part of an audience for other people’s presentations/performances.  EXA 1-01a 

Careers

We have had a few visitors that came to share their careers with us. They were really interesting. We got to try on some of their uniform and ask them lots of questions.

I can describe some of the kinds of work that
people do and I am finding out about the wider
world of work. HWB 1-20a

Through taking part in a variety of events and activities, I am learning
to recognise my own skills and abilities as well as those of others.

A big thank you to all our visitors. We all really enjoyed your visits.

World Book Day

We all enjoyed dressing up as our favourite book character for World Book Day. We found out about how authors describe characters and we studied Mr and Mrs Twit from The Twits by Roald Dahl.

There was a World Book Day assembly and we had to guess what books went with the illustrations we were shown.

We also made book covers of our favourite books. We had to include the title, author, write the blurb on the back and illustrate it. We are going to make a book buddy and display them in our library corner.
