This week we have been reading the story of Little Red Riding Hood. We made a basket for Granny and we wrote a list of all the things we put in. We also made repeating patterns using pictures from the book and we did some subtraction calculations. To make Granny feel better we made some get well soon cards and posted them in the dragon’s post box. Granny loved them and sent us the ingredients to make a jam sandwich. We had to tell Miss Stebbing the instructions to make the sandwich and we learned we had to be very clear. She put the whole loaf of bread on the plate and then put the jar of jam in the middle of the two pieces of bread. It was very funny!

In Writing, we have been learning to describe the different characters from Little Red Riding Hood. For talking sentences we described Red Riding Hood using the Describing Bubble. Then we wrote our own sentences about the Big Bad Wolf.

We learned about the features of a castle this week and we drew our own castle and labelled all the different features. We also built a castle in our classroom so the Friendly Dragon can have its castle back in Fairyland. The Friendly Dragon left us a baby dragon that we have named Spike. We love looking after Spike and making it things in Creative Zone.

In Health and Wellbeing we learned about things that are safe or unsafe to eat and we talked about medicines. We were very good at discussing the different substances and where they should be stored in our houses.
