phone booth, which was transformed into a rocket.\u00a0 \u00a0They have also been very busy constructing their own rockets with blocks and other construction toys .\u00a0 In the art area they have been making rockets using 2D shapes and staff have been encouraging the children to name the shapes while they were creating their pictures.\u00a0 \u00a0We have been reading space related stories to the children, watching astronauts floating about in space stations and rockets taking off on the smart board.\u00a0 Story spoons (aliens love underpants), were put out to encourage the children to create their own stories through play.\u00a0 It&#8217;s been a busy and fun filled week.<\/p>\n<p><a
