We have enjoyed having Mrs Gray and Mrs Spence and being back for a whole week this week! We have been learning about Spring time, here are some facts we have learned:

• Frogs come out of hibernation in spring time
• New life begins for some animals like lambs and chicks
• Bees begin to make honey
• Different types of flowers included tulips, daffodils and crocuses

We used various art materials to create a Spring diorama which was great fun! We also having been learning that horses have foals, cows have calves and rabbits have kittens believe it or not! We have learned how to write acrostic and shape poems all about Spring. We added some similes to our writing including ‘the rabbit’s  fur is as soft as marshmallows’ and ‘the chick is as yellow as the sun’.

Circle time was fun with Mrs Spence playing killer 12 and we started Special person which was really exciting! We had to put our names in a balloon and when we popped it a name was chosen. This person became the special and they can choose their class job for the week, their seat in class and have a comfy cushion to sit on!

We are looking forward to Mrs Aitken coming back next week!

Have a lovely long weekend!
