Thank you for sponsoring us. We had lots of fun this afternoon and after our circuit and came back to class feeling very tired. 💤

Snow!
As you will know, the boys and girls are very excited today. They have all discussed their big plans for after school. Some want to build snowmen, others would like to make snow angels and the rest are wanting a snowball fight (good luck parents!). We based our writing on what we like to do in the snow. As you will see, our writing keeps getting better and better ! Mrs Arbuckle also went out into the cold and got some snow for our tuff tray. We put our gloves on and made little snowmen ⛄.
Problem Solving
This week is our problem solving week in Maths. Today, we were completing patterns by drawing the shapes which should come next. We found this a little tricky at first but got better with practise. Mrs Arbuckle added more challenge into this activity by changing the colours of the shapes in the pattern. We needed our thinking hats on 🎩 but we did very well.
Sponsored Sports Day
Tomorrow ( Tuesday 22nd January ) is our sponsored sports day. We are so excited!Children should come to school in their sports clothes. We will still be going outside for outdoor learning so please ensure they are well wrapped up.
Outdoor Learning
We love being outside! Every Tuesday afternoon we will be going outdoors in all weathers. This week, we explored our school Eco Garden and made plans for Spring. We also visited the adventure playground. Please ensure all children are well wrapped up – Miss O’Neil will be doing the same as she had no socks on and ended up with very cold toes!
Class Assembly
We are very excited to have started our rehearsals for our class assembly which will be on Wednesday 23rd January. The children have had a line sent home to practise and we would appreciate if they are given the opportunity to do so in front of others. We know the children will be excellent as they were super at their recent Nativity performance!
Nativity costumes
We hope everyone is succeeding in finding costumes for our Nativity in two weeks. This can be any animal from a nativity scene. Some parents have kindly shared where they have found their costumes so if you need any suggestions we are happy to help. 👍
Identifying sounds
Today we played a game of SPLAT. We went against an opponent and had to identify different digraphs. Sometimes we can get these mixed up so it is great to have this extra practise.
Music
We love going to the music room! Today we were pretending to be frogs and hopped along to different beats. We also had the opportunity to play a range of instruments including tambours, maracas, claves, triangles and two-tone woodblocks. It was great fun!
Making our Reindeer Jars
We are busy this week making our Reindeer Jars. We are doing a little group at a time. We will put the reindeer food in at the end of the week.
