Since returning from the October week break, we have been working so hard in all learning areas!

In Literacy, we are continuing to improve our ability to blend sounds!

Now that we have learned lots of single sounds we are working hard to blend them together to read words and also make CVC words on our own.

We have been revisiting our knowledge of rhyme! We have had lots of fun playing rhyming games and spotting the odd rhyme out.

Numeracy and Maths

We have been working hard to make numbers in different ways, we have been doing this using cubes, numicon and even Mickey Mouse! This is helping us to begin to develop our adding skills. As well as all of this, we have been working hard to find the number before and after.

We have also been using the BeeBots to learn about direction. We worked hard to move them forwards, backwards, diagonal and to the side.

Other Areas

We had our first French lesson! We used this as an opportunity to share anything we could remember from nursery,  everyone could remember lots!

We coloured in the French flag and practiced having small conversations with a partner in French. We were able to say hello, how are you and good bye!

In gym, we have started to learn gymnastics!

We had lots of fun moving our bodies in different ways and practicing our balancing skills by walking along the bench. We discussed different ways we could jump off safely to the land on the mat.

We have been having so much fun learning outside. We have been using our imaginations to create lots of different role-play activities.

Last week, we worked together to create a pirate ship! We had to work as a team to move lots of the outdoor resources to do this. We also used treasure maps to follow directions and created our own.

Here we are creating a pirate story! We had lots of ideas about pirates, pirate ships and hunting for treasure. We drew pictures to show our story but also tried to write a super sentence! We were so excited to share our stories with the rest of the class afterwards.

As well as using our imaginations we enjoy developing our literacy and numeracy skills outdoors! We do this by practicing letter and number formation, making number lines and practicing making words.

We had so much fun learning a dance routine at the Strictly Kids Event! It was lots of fun and we raised lots of money for charity.

Well Done P1B!
