Hello,

Class 1 had a lovely week with new experiences and fun!!

We celebrated “Book Week” and, in line with our topic, we worked with Pinocchio!! We enjoyed the story and we learned a lot about puppets and the different materials that can e made of. We stated with the sock puppets; the kids chose their sock and they decorated them using their imagination.  Marionettes were the next puppet we explored. We found out that we have to use our fingers and strings in order to move these puppets. The kids had the opportunity to gain the experience of Shadow Puppetry and set up their own Puppet Shadow play using the characters from the Pinocchio story.

In maths, we started working with money. This week we focused on identifying coins up to 20p/50p and £2. The kids worked really hard and next week we will set up our own Toy shop! In Literacy, we worked with the sound “n” and “ie” as well as blending sounds in order to read cvc/ccvc words.

Have a look 🙂
