Shape and One Button Benny

It was lovely to welcome everyone back after the holiday and we enjoyed sharing what we did during the break. It was clear everyone was excited to see each other and it didn’t take long for the exploring and learning to begin.

We have started learning about shape and this week we were able to identify and describe 2D shapes. We completed various activities within our workbook and sorted the shapes on the board. Some of us loved being able to spot the trickier 2D shapes and this prompted a discussion around shapes with various numbers of sides. We will use this learning as a platform to progress onto 3D objects.

Before the holiday we were reading One Button Benny with Miss Regan and Miss Daly. We completed some lovely activities around this book including designing your own robot. This week we got to put our cardboard tubes to good use and made our own One Button Benny. We used a variety of materials and could make him anyway we chose. There were lots of sticky fingers by the end!
