At Health today, Miss Smith told us all about the Dough Disco. It was so good! We watched the clip and it told us what to do to our dough in time to the disco music. It was a lot of fun. The movements are stress relievers and can be used when we want to feel better. It is good for our mental health.
It is Monday morning which means one thing … P.E! Mr Higgins set up an amazing obstacle course for us and we loved it! We had to crawl under a net, dodge through cones, climb under hurdles and jump off of a tall ramp. A perfect start to set us up for our day ahead 
We had our little “Pizza Hut” in class last week for rôle play and decided that we could make real pizza this week. Pizza is the most favourite choice at the lunch hall. First, we all washed our hands. Then, we spread the tomato purėe over the pizza base and added mozzarella cheese and then put it in the oven for 8 minutes. We took it out and Mrs Arbuckle cut it up for us. We took our slices out to eat at Values Playtime. They were yummy.
Our new timetable has started this week and we now welcome Mr Higgins on a Monday morning. He is a PE teacher and will be extending our skills over the coming months. We will also have to get ready for Sports Day! It takes place in June, but it will soon be here!
We are excited to participate in more STEM activities this week. This morning we had a visit from a dentist. She spoke to us about why our teeth are so important and showed us the different equipment she uses. She explained that we should be brushing our teeth twice a day and we have to try not to eat too much sugar ! The dentist also showed us lots of different food and drink and we had to vote whether we thought these were good for our teeth or bad. Did you know; Frijj banana milk has more sugar in it than a can of Coca Cola!
The weather was lovely last week and we took our snacks outdoors. We sat at the picnic benches and talked to our friends and munched! When we finished, we put our rubbish in the bin and our boxes back in our baskets in class. Then we played in the sunshine. 
At football today, we started to learn how to dribble the ball with the inside of our foot and place our foot on the ball to stop it. It was quite tricky, but we did it! We only have a short time in the Street, so we have to listen super carefully.
The dentist visited us today. She was lovely. She used a special little mirror to look inside our mouths. We had to step up onto a table and lie down. The dentist gave us really dark sunglasses to wear as she had to use a bright light which would have shone in our eyes. We looked really cool. We were so good, that we got Disney stickers at the end.
Thank you for sponsoring us. We had lots of fun this afternoon and after our circuit and came back to class feeling very tired. 
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.
