It has been so cold this week! We had previously tried to freeze bubbles without success as it just wasn’t cold enough, but this week gave us  the perfect conditions for bubble freezing and there was so much excitement when we actually succeeded.

We have been learning about money in Numeracy and Maths and our shop was always very busy.

We learned about the ch sound, read our books and through practical activities developed our knowledge of the common words.

Here are some more pictures of this week’s learning.

We have been practising our nativity so hard and cannot wait to perform it for you on Monday.

This week outdoors we were investigating the story shed. We dressed up and retold favourite stories – we didn’t use the stage area though preferring to take our storytelling round to the large loose parts area, the mud kitchen and the sand pit.

In literacy, we have been practising our Kung Fu Punctuation, looking for punctuation in our reading books and favourite library books, we have been developing our predicting and sequencing skills and blending our sounds to create words.

In Numeracy and Maths we have been skip counting, finding missing numbers, subitising and using our developing mental maths skills to solve real life problems. We have been working with money and this really helped us at the present room this morning when we were working out the difference between £1 and £2 coins.

Here are some more pictures of this week’s learning, featuring our brand new Mini Me’s, maybe you can spot them in the pictures!

We had a wedding this week in P1A, it’s amazing how well dressed we can be with some fabric and a box of clothes pegs!

In the Woodland we worked together to create homes for Mythical Creatures including Unicorns, Yeti, Mermaids and even a Kitsune!

We had so much fun investigating all of the resources in the Woodland Trolley – though we had to work together to bring it back up the hill.

We’ve been doing such a great job of learning the songs for our Nativity and have now started to learn where we need to be on the stage and when we need to move.

In Numeracy and Maths this week we have been learning about Money and continuing with our number work.

This week we wrote about our Mythical Beast habitats and these are now on our display board along with our Dragon Eyes which look amazing.

Here are a few more pictures of this week’s learning.

I hope everyone has a great weekend.
