What a busy week we have had! Thank you to everyone for coming along to our Nativity on Monday. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!

The P7’s came down to teach us how to make snowman pictures.

We had a Christmas themed French lesson.

And we had fun at our Christmas party – we even had a special visitor!

I hope everyone as a fantastic Christmas and look forward to hearing all about it when we return in January.

This week we have worked so hard on our Nativity and we really hope that you enjoy it on Monday. After our amazing dress rehearsal, we made handprint Polar Bears. We hope you like them.

We have even been helping to make some of the props!

In Numeracy we have been working on our number bonds to ten.

We have been using our Number Talks skills discussing how to solve Christmas Maths Problems and explaining our answers.

Our Drawing Club tasks this week were all linked to the story Mog’s Christmas using the book and the Sainsbury’s advert.

Outdoors with Miss Hutcheson we were learning about water displacement using Archimedes Theory.

In the Construction Area, we have been working on stability as we have been building higher structures and have been finding that they keep falling over!

We hope you are looking forward to our Nativity Performance on Monday – we’re very excited about the bus trip too!

This week we welcomed a special visitor to the classroom. We have no idea how he got in, and he’s made a bit of a mess, but we are so excited to see what he will get up to next!

In literacy, we have been working with our reading books and common words and we have learned our new sounds v and oo.

Our Drawing Club book this week was The Dinosaur who Pooped Christmas – watch out for us using our new favourite word humungous (though we weren’t too sure about one of the other words pungent!)

In Numeracy, we have been ordering and finding missing numbers.

We had fun outdoors in what was left of the snow.

There was a huge debate in the Construction Area about stability of structures and speed of descent when the children were trying to launch cars from the top of this building – I think we have a few budding engineers in our class!

I hope everyone has a great weekend – I wonder what Tinsel will be up to next week!

It’s December and so nativity rehearsals are in full swing.  Thank you so much for helping your children to learn their lines.

In Maths and Numeracy we have been working with number lines and Numicon and we have continued our learning about money.

Our sounds this week were z, w and ng and we have been using our common words and new sounds to build words and sentences.

Miss Hutcheson took us to the Woodland where we were using natural materials to create numbers and letters.

In our Construction Area we have been creating ramps at the top of our buildings – we have learned that the buildings have to be really stable for this to be successful.

Here are some more photos of our play.
