Tuesday

This morning there was continued interest in the paint app game on the computer. With some adult support children can choose an image and using the functions buttons they can now  edit colours, shapes and size. Then using the photocopier to make a paper copy of the completed image

Children have used the gym hall area well this morning to run, jump play football and dodge ball. Children leading their own games and agreeing rules through discussion.

Wednesday 

This morning we have used the large pipe in the garden, rolling up and down the hill, noticing that it is harder to roll uphill and tricky to keep up rolling it downhill. Discovering simple forces.

 

Some of the children played a role play game of dinosaurs 🦕 they can name lots of different types of dinosaurs 🦖 🦕 and demonstrated how each one moved. Developing their gross motor skills and sharing knowledge with peers.

Thursday

We watched some cartoons using the smartboard. Children talked about differences when they saw an old cartoon and new cartoon. The colours were brighter on the new one and they like the new ones better. Developing our interest in film and screen, talking about our likes and dislikes.

 

 

Friday

We were plying cricket 🏏 in the gym hall this morning. Testing out which bat was best. Some were heavy some were light. They tried with both and each decided which one they liked best for the game. 🏏 then they practiced throwing and batting, developing their hand eye co ordination and gross motor skills. They discussed the rules and looked for adult support when needed.

We played skittles 🎳 taking time to set them up, counting to 4 then rolling the ball 🎳 to knock them down. We celebrated our success as we knocked the skittles 🎳 down.
