Adrienne visited us to tell us the story of “Jonah and the Whale”. It was quite scary in parts. At the beginning we had to look for Wally just like people had to search for Jonah. We did a quiz at the end. Thank you, Adrienne.
We learn something new every day in 1.3. The children often use their imaginations and do things that Mrs Arbuckle had never even thought about! Great learning!
Sometimes it’s good to take our learning outside. Today we went in to the playground to practise our phonics and spelling. We concentrated really hard and got lots of words written on the playground. We then washed our hands and dusted ourselves down.
We were learning all about parts of flowers. We looked at pictures of flowers and we looked at real flowers. They were amazing. We could see the pollen inside them and we knew that the bees love pollen. We learned about petals, the stem, the roots and the leaves. We then made our flowers with all the different parts. They look good.
Every day we learn something new through play. ( Arthur learned how to free the soil from the tubes with much perseverance!) Overheard conversations are always a joy to hear as children always put each other to the test and try new things. They are also very good at encouraging each other.
