This week the class read the book ‘Lost and Found’ by Oliver Jeffers with Mrs Teale.
Following on from this, they wrote stories about where they thought the penguin would go next. They included interesting openers at the start of their sentences.
The next day they did a STEM challenge where they had to build an igloo for the penguin to live in. They worked in small groups to do this. They communicated well with each other, showed good problem solving skills and worked very well as a team. Some groups even decided to make extra parts to go with the igloo, including a tractor and a polar bear.
They then had a treat and got to make penguin biscuits which they ate whilst watching the animated version of ‘Lost and Found’.
We also enjoyed playing with snow and penguins in the tuff tray this week.
