Here are the children’s highlights of our learning this week:
Oliver: “the ‘s’ sound is blue.”
Seren: “it is blue because the back of our tongue is blue and the ‘s’ sound comes from our tongue.”
Chloe: “we were making the ‘s’ sound with pipe cleaners.”
Eve: “we made a Harry and the dinosaurs book.”
Kayla: “we stuck on the author and illustrators name onto the bottom of the book.”
Isabelle: “the title goes at the top of the book.”
Hanna: “we learned how to write the number 8.”
Mark: “we went a walk around the school and saw Mrs Roy.”
Liam: “I made a dinosaur and wrote about the dinosaur. I was the star writer.”
Victoria: “we were writing numbers in flour trays. I wrote the number 8.”
Robert: “we made dinosaurs using plasticine”
Chloe: “we took vidoes with our dinosaurs.”
Blake: “in PE when the music is on we done lots of travelling like running or galloping and when the music stops you freeze or find your own space.”
Evie: “We made a letter ‘p’ with pasta.”
Joshua: “We have a ‘s’ box and a ‘p’ box. Pasta is in the pink ‘p’ box and scissors are in the ‘s’ blue box.”
Below are some ideas to support learning at home:
If you make something at home e.g. a dinosaur, why don’t you make a movie by filming you acting out a story with your creation – great ideas for oral literacy and improving your technology skills!
We were learning about ‘heavy and light’ – what things can you find in your house that are heavy and what things are light?
‘s’ is a blue sound because we use our tongue to make this sound. Can you find the blue veins on the bottom of your tongue. ‘p’ is a pink sound, we make this sound from our lips. Some lip sounds are red because they are loud sounds like ‘m’ but ‘p’ is a quiet lip sound so this is a pink sound. Here are the songs we used to support learning.

P1M…this blog is fantastic!! Everyone has such a different and interesting comment, I loved reading them all. You are all continuing to develop your excellent listening and turn taking skills… I am going to take the lovely idea about making a movie at home when you’ve made something , and tell the nursery boys and girls, to do the very same thing. Thank you for that fantastic idea. Isn’t the blog a great way of sharing information. Keep smiling. Mrs Beattie. Xx
