We have had a great week settling back into school routines.

Tickled Pink:

• We have been learning about tally marks this week and the children are very good at remembering that we draw the fifth tally across to ‘shut the door’. During Outdoor Learning we observed the cars passing the school and recorded tallys of their colour. The children loved this but it was a bit tricky to keep up when lots of cars were passing at once.

• We were learning about the Green cog from Emotion Works this week which is all about how we show our emotions using our face, body, actions etc. The children enjoyed dancing along to ‘I feel good’ and acting out the different emotions using our whole bodies.
• For drama we listened to the story ‘The Tortoise and the Hare’ and had lots of fun pretending to be the different animals and making ‘stills’ of the Tortoise winning the race.

 

Green for Growth:

• Some children found the tally marks a bit tricky. We will continue to focus on this next week.
• We were learning how to make fact families in maths. This was a bit confusing at first but then it started to click.

 

Lead Learners next week are Fraser and Evie!

 

Have a nice weekend,

Mrs Wallace
