Hello everyone and welcome back to our class blog. It is great to be back and hopefully things can now get back to feeling a little more normal.
Although Spring does not officially start until the 20th of March, we have been enjoying the lovely sunny weather and have began investigating how our environment changes as we welcome the new season. We wanted our classroom to reflect some of the changes going on outside and have started creating new Spring wall displays.
We read a lovely story called Cody the Cautious Caterpillar. This inspired us to investigate the life cycle of a butterfly. As you can see from the picture above we made caterpillars using finger paints and butterflies using collage materials. At the top right of the picture you can see a diagram detailing the cycle. We moved onto look at the life cycle of a frog. As you can see from the picture below, we drew frogs using a guided draw and created life cycle diagrams. Investigating Spring has definitely made us all feel positive!

Since we all came back to class we have been focusing on addition and combining different combination of numbers to 10. Some of the activities the children done to support their understanding of this concept pictured below –
I hope you all have a great weekend. Stay safe and I will post more updates next week.
