We have decorated our classroom door to create a winter village scene. First, we made a collage house using tissue paper and gummed paper. Our challenge was to make a tiled roof and show something in the window. Next, we decorated a 3D Christmas tree. Then we looked at pictures of skating figures and talked about what they were wearing and how they were moving. We each drew a skating figure to go on the frozen village pond.

Our rhymes this week were ip and an, and we came up with great words such as ‘Japan, Peter Pan and Dalmatian’.

We are still enjoying ‘The Jolly Postman’ and we wrote a story about a parcel he delivered to another character.

 

Other activities were to use adjectives to describe Red Riding Hood and the wolf and to put a jigsaw of Humpty Dumpty back together again.

We are very grateful to Miss Muir who teaches us Signalong signs every week. Here we are signing ‘I see a reindeer’.

We painted a pink sky, and many of us have noticed these skies recently. We are very careful not to over mix the paints and make it all one colour. Then we cut out silhouettes of trees, snowmen and reindeer and finished off with glitter snowflakes.

In maths we are learning subtraction facts for teens numbers and have played Bingo to help us practise.
