Another busy week in Lomond Class.
Food technology- we made pitta bread pizzas again – this is definitely one of our favourite food activities!
We continued working on our learning in literacy and maths.
Outdoors we had fun in the Trim Trail, field and kick pitch.
Continuing our Spring art theme we made some lovely blossom tree pictures by printing. We also explored wax resist painting to make some Easter egg art.
We hope everyone has a great Easter holiday!
The class did some lovely daffodil inspired paintings and collage recently. Many enjoyed mixing paint colours again. This art work is proudly displayed on our Spring wall. We also made some Easter cards outdoors with Miss Nelson – they’ll be going home soon.
Our book of the week was ‘The Smartest Giant in Town’. Several of the children chose to look at/read this book in their own time and one even re-enacted some of the story out in the field. Fantastic!
We had a very active time in PE again with Mrs McMaster and enjoyed the Spring sunshine on Thursday in the kick pitch and field.
Have a lovely weekend.
Our book of the week was Little Red Riding Hood. We’ll continue some activities related to this next week.
We’ve made the most of some lovely weather – playing in the field and the kick pitch. Several children explored their shadows on the kick pitch fence.
In class, some children played with the dienes materials again, creating different amounts. The 3d shapes were popular with most children exploring them during free- play (choose time). We’ve had some time to develop our understanding of patterns and this will continue next week. We continue to develop our literacy skills at our own individual levels.
Mrs McMaster prepared a variety of equipment again for our PE sessions- we explored this equipment and developed our skills.
Some process art involved printing with foil and mixing paint colours. This led to some messy, sensory hand mixing and printing by some of the children.
The class enjoyed play time in the ‘Shed’. Several of the children are developing their skills on the scooter- becoming more confident each time.
It was lovely to have everyone back in class after the February holiday. We’ve continued our learning in Literacy and Numeracy, enjoyed the winter sunshine in the field and had fun in the new ‘play shed’. Several of us played with the playmobil swimming pool throughout the week. Some of us explored different resources such as pasta and glitter in the sensory area. Some also explored mixing paint in some process art using balloons and enjoyed looking closely at the colours as they mixed. As usual, we had a great time in PE with Mrs McMaster.
