We kicked off our Children in Need walkathon with a Pudsey hunt around school – the children were terrific at working with a partner and taking turns to use their clipboards!
We painted and printed Pudsey faces – unfortunately they still hadn’t dried by hometime but here they are looking bright and colourful!
A great big thank you to everyone for your donations today 🙂
This lovely book gave us lots of opportunities to count to six at storytime today – you can click on the link to hear it being read aloud.
We’ve been using dinosaurs, dice, dominoes and more to explore six.
Can you spot Sid and his Six Dinners in our picollage below? 🐈⬛
This week we have been thinking about Remembrance Day and all the brave soldiers. Here is a short film that we watched to help us understand why we wear poppies around this time:
We also painted our own poppies, joined in with the 2 minute silence at 11 o’clock and even had poppy-shaped biscuits for dessert with our school lunches!
Our new sounds this week are v, w, x and y. You can watch the video below to see some of the activities and games we have been playing in school. We’re so impressed with all the super practice you are doing at home, the children are getting so confident! 🙂
Chalkhill have been amazing at finding four this week! Check out our photos and click on the link below to hear a song we enjoyed counting along with 🙂
We did some super snipping to help develop our scissor skills – and made a fabulous firework display in the process! Have fun and stay safe if you are celebrating Bonfire Night this weekend ✨
Have a look at our phonics learning this week, you might like to join in for a bit of extra practice! 🙂
Apologies that the practice video for last week’s sounds is a bit late – you can find the link below 🙂
It’s the last few days of school before the October break so there will be no new sounds this week, we will resume with new sounds when we return in November.
We’ve been practising letter formation and using the sounds we have learned to segment words.
This is how we do it:
This week we have been learning about the number two – as well as writing the numeral, playing games and singing songs we have been noticing two all around us! Can you see:
two conkers and two cucumbers?
two tigers?
two treats on a tray?
See how many more ’twos’ you can spot at home or on the way to school… 🙂
