This was just a short week for us but we managed to cram a lot of exciting learning in! When we returned on Wednesday we had PE with Mr McCurdy and everyone is really enjoying learning and participating in athletics. This is part of our interhouse championship and all the children are loving the competitive side to this block of PE. We also enjoy outdoor learning with Mr Hunter on a Wednesday. This week with Mr Hunter we learning all about lifeboats and their important job. We then thought about what would make a good lifeboat and made our own using tinfoil, we tested our boats outside in the water tray.
We continued with our current project of building a ‘People Who Help Us’ town. Our buildings are now complete and we enjoyed playing with them in our structured play this week.
Our structured play block finished this week and we are very excited to find out our new stations structured play next week. Watch this space…
To finish off our busy day on Wednesday we went to the library to return our library books and choose a new one. Did you ask your child what book they picked?
We all enjoy our story writing lesson on a Thursday. This week, we tried out a new concept in our writing. Everyone was given the same story starter: “Suddenly there was a loud bang and the moon fell from the sky. I was…” The stories were all fantastic and everyone has super imaginations. Have a look out for these stories next time you have the opportunity to look in our jotters.
We wanted to learn about vets as part of our topic. On Friday we had some special visitors to our classroom. We learned about how to care of pets properly and what to look out for in case our pets need to go to the vet.
