Hello all,
Well we are here, in the final weeks before Christmas.
The Christmas Nativity 'Going on a Baby Hunt' is going really well.
Thank you for helping your child learn their lines. Over the weekend if they could practise saying it slower and louder that would be fantastic.
It's their big moment and you will be very proud of them.
Practise outside, on a walk if you go and in the garden.
This week has been a week of looking at different materials we use for building and various pieces of furniture and objects around the classroom.
We have talk about some of the properties of these materials.
Plastic
Wood
Metal
Glass
Paper/cardboard
Which materials can be recycled and why we need to recycle many materials.
Which materials are man-made and which are natural.
We used magnets to test for metals.
In maths this week we looked at shapes and spotted shapes in our environment and which shapes are used for building materials and why? We discovered the school is made from stone and bricks.
Recycling station
Shape boats
Recycling and looking and talking about different buildings
Looking and describing different shapes and their properties.
Do they roll or slide?
Are the solid or flat?
Are they good shapes for building?
Next Thursday is our Christmas play. The dress rehersel is Tuesday.
Please make sure your costume is in school and if you don't have one please ask as we have some in school you can borrow.
Thank you for all your support and we are looking forward to seeing you all next week.
Mrs Oddy and Mrs Hemingway
