This week we have been very busy practising for our Nativity. The stage is now up and we got a chance to sit on the stage in our places. The staff are very proud of how well we are doing with our singing, words and actions. The best part is seeing all the great dancing!
In maths we have been learning about making stories for 7 and 8. We used the Numicon to help us and we are getting very good at remembering the numbers that add to make 7 and 8. We also started playing Eggs to Order on the Smartboard. It can be tricky because the numbers are muddled up and we have to think carefully about where they go.
This week we learned two new sounds ‘b’ and ‘f’. We are making words using the sounds we know. The literacy activity trays changed this week and we have enjoyed using the Alphablocks lolly sticks to make words and practise our sounds. In writing we made posters to tell people to keep our oceans clean. We watched a video about pollution in the oceans to help us.
Today we were very excited because the Christmas decorations have been put up in the area. We also got an Advent Calendar from the PFA to help us count down to Christmas.
