Ash Class Reception Y1

We have been learning about size and putting objects in order.  This game is good for practising taking turns and learning how to say 'well done' to the winner.

We have been prodding, poking, rubbing, rolling and squishing porridge play-dough to make a sculpture!

We have a Winter wonderland in our weather station.  Sythetic snow is available to buy on Amazon and it is GREAT FUN! We have added a snowman, polar bear, pengiuins and seals for role play.  

Here are some of the words the children used to describe it.....

cold, squashy, slippery, funny,…

We have made our own decorations whilst in the forest.  We have been sawing and sticking!

This morning we have been working with Year 6 children and making a Christingle. We used an orange, which represents the earth; a red ribbon around it representing the blood of Christ; dried fruitsand sweets skewered on cocktail sticks pushed into the orange, representing the fruits of the earth…

This is our Christmas investigation tray.  We will add pictures, photos and objects over the next few weeks for the children to investigate!

In Ash class this week have been following instructions to make a rain gauge.  We have been observing the weather each morning and afternoon for a week. We have been mind mapping weather words and what we know already!

Please could you send in any spare jam jars with lids into Ash class?  We will be using them in our Christmas crafts.

Thanks

Mrs Mason

We have run out of yoghurt pots, margering lids, foil lids and small plastic box modelling materials.

Please  begin collecting and send them into Ash Class.

Thank you

We have been making animals using playdough to put in Noah's ark.  We needed two of each type!

Roll, squish, pinch, prod and poke!

We have been using adjectives to describe our pirate story settings!

We thought our small world try was cold, crunchy, green, blue, scary, bumpy, funny, tickly....... and so much more!

We have been retelling the story of Noahs ark.  We have been adding the animals in 2s and practising our counting skills...... 2 4 6 8 10!
