Bringing Books To Life

Willow Class throughly enjoyed their dance class delivered by Eddie from West End in Schools.  They created a dance to tell the story of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.  Well done Willow Class, you showed some great dance moves.

Today a dance teacher came in and taught us a dance routine to Charlie and the chocolate factory! We had lots of fun and re-told the story using some cool dance moves.

Here is an action shot from our Roald Dahl Day. The boys are in the small world tray pretending to be the children from Charlie Chocolate Factory.

We have been lucky this year as we have a brand new role play cottage in our Ash class outdoor area. This week it is a kitchen and dining table.

The children have enjoyed construction outdoors too!  So far we have had tiger cages, zooming trains, cars that have spaces for tigers in the boot and…

We have begun learning the first set of letter sounds! We have been making sparkly slithering snakes to help us learn the letter S.  Super star!

Curriculum Overview  

We had a fantastic morning learning about a paramedics job, we looked  through all of their different medical bags and had the opportunity to use some of the equipment. We also had the chance to explore the ambluance. 

This morning the children in recpetion have been using positional language to complete tasks on the play ground! We are all fantastic at positional language (Maths: shape, space, measure 40-60 months)!

We had a special visitor today, Mrs Hunter brought her chicks in for us all to see! We all had the opportunity to hold the chicks and we learnt lots about them. 

Today the children in Ash class had to listen to the properites of a 2D shape then run to the shape that was being described. We all had lots of fun and could recognise shapes from how they are being described!
