Our main focus has been ‘Road Safety’ this week after a big interest in cars, we had a visit from our lollypop lady who explained to us her job role and showed us how she safely gets people across the road. We have a pupil who crosses the road every day using the lollypop lady. We went for a walk in the Strom Road to see what road signs we cold spot, speaking about which shapes each was. This gave us the idea to create our own signs at the craft table and spoke about what each sign means for both people and cars. We were very creative and used the junk to create our own traffic lights and acted out the role of the lollypop person to safely people across the road.
We looked at shapes around our environment after observing what shapes some of the road signs were. We were great at noticing what shapes different objects were.
We made some ‘Moon dough’ for our sensory play this week, we said- “It feels like foam”, “It’s sticky” & “It feels like ice cream”.
We visited the polytunnel, we liked the number grid and circled around the numbers which were ages of people we knew & stacked up the cushions to see how high we could get them.
We added new loose parts in our indoor outdoor area and children chose colours to mix with them & said “I’ve mixed blue and yellow so now I have green”.
We had some lovely sun beaming in our window so could see reflections on our wall from our sparkly jumpers.
We made a stage using the blocks again and pretended to have our own concert where we performed for one another, we decided it was a ticketed event & created tickets for one another.
We said goodbye to Miss Young 🙁 We wish her all the best in her new job & will miss her very much!
