We would like to wish Mrs McKibbin good luck in her new career and we are going to miss her so much. Mrs Bolland, Mrs McIntyre, The Ladies and the children spent some time with her as she opened her gifts. Mrs McKibbin has worked in St Bartholomew’s for 18 years and has formed good relationships with families in Townhead Community.
We have been using paint, glue spreaders and cotton buds to explore mark making and copying letters
We have been exploring the Halloween tray, learning and singing Halloween songs.
We have been singing Nursery Rhymes today using the puppets to support us to make our choices.
We have been learning to count our movements and identify numbers when playing games outdoors.
The children had the opportunity to use tools today and used saws, hammers and screwdrivers. They had a great time exploring the tools and spoke about safety before and when they were using the tools.
The children have been learning about 2d and 3d shapes around them. One of the opportunities they were engaged and interested in was exploring 2d shapes on the lightboard.
We have been developing our literacy skills during the Language Land session. The children have been looking, listening, learning new vocabulary and categorising where the animals live.
We had a lovely discussion today about healthy foods today during snack. The children were naming the fruits and discussing how fruit, milk and water are good for their teeth, skin and give them muscles.
We went a walk outdoors to explore how the environment changes as we go into Autumn. The children discovered leaves on the ground that had fallen from the trees and bushes. We discussed the different colours of the leaves and looked at the flowers and berries on the bushes. We looked underneath the bushes and found a giant slug and a spiders web on the bush.
