We have all had a wonderful last week of term full of lots of excitement and chat about Christmas!
We have spent some of the week making some beautiful art pieces and we hope you enjoy these at home. We all created a calendar to to gift to someone at home and used this to discuss the different seasons of the year. We painted a tree and then used different coloured tissue paper to represent each of the seasons.
We have also been learning about symmetry and where we might see symmetry in the world around us. To help us understand what is meant by symmetry we painted half a Christmas tree and then folded the paper resulting in a full Christmas tree. We have also coloured a Christmas crown and had to think carefully about the colour of each of the jewels.
The highlight of this week was the Christmas Party. We started off with lots of dancing and some party games such as Corners and Musical Statues.
We then enjoyed a game of Pass the Parcel.
After our snack we were treated to a visit from a very special person. We waited patiently for him to arrive and then sang Jingle Bells very loudly so he could hear us.
We enjoyed listening to Santa tell us about his busiest day of the year and were then so excited to open our present from him.
We ended our party with a picture around the Christmas tree.
Merry Christmas to you all.
