We were very excited this week now that it’s December. Each morning we talk about the day, date and season and were delighted to finally change our board to winter and the 1st December! Because so many children open advent calendars before they come to school we all know the date each morning! For our class advent we are taking it in turns to unwrap a picturebook each day, this morning it was How the Grinch stole Christmas.
We’re doing lots of writing and word building in our jotters, on whiteboards and in our play. In our writing this week we drew a black pen picture of ourselves putting hats on and wrote a story about putting on our hats. In numeracy we’re continuing with our addition, this week using numicon to help us. We’re also now looking at numbers to 15.
We have started our Christmas crafts – last week we made reindeer for Mrs Ryalls’ corridor displays and this week we did a great job very carefully painting robins on wooden discs. All classes are decorating their doors and we’re having a snowy woodland scene.
