We have been starting the day with some groovy moves from our physical Advent calendar. Today we were doing tuck rolls. We are continuing to work hard on our reading comprehension and compass points in maths.
This afternoon we looked at different instruments to measure weather and checked how accurate the weather forecast was today. We also added some details to our Picasso-inspired paintings.
Today’s Advent Calendar activity was an activity which we did outside. There were 4 teams and we used the bean bag to play over and under. The winning team got a point each for their group.
We started to think about the meaning of Advent and the birth of Jesus.
We will be following the progress of Joseph and Mary and making more links to our Nativity.
It’s December! Can’t believe we have only 3 weeks until Christmas!😊 This year we have an Advent calendar which is linked to our HWB work on keeping healthy.
We enjoyed being active outdoors and did our star jumps outside. We shouted “Happy first of December” which seemed more appropriate!
We followed the instructions on the playground trail, jogged, side-stepped and enjoyed the fresh air.
This afternoon we started to explore ways that people receive money and the methods we have to spend money. We learnt that the first coins were created about 700 B.C. and notes were given as receipts by goldsmiths when they were storing gold and silver for people.
