Goldilocks And The Three Bears - Sizes

Welcome back! We hope you enjoyed the week, please do let us know what you did on a wow slip.
This is always an enjoyable term as Spring is on it's way and we have fun exploring the changes that occur.

This week we are looking and learning about sizes ( M: Shape and space ). Goldilocks and the three bears is an excellent example of telling the difference between big, medium and small.We will read and look at the story every day this week ( L: Reading )

The children will all be playing a matching game, identifying sizes of the bears and then choosing the matching size bowl of porridge, chair etc.

The number three is featured throughout the book so we will look at this numeral by sight and then play a number game. This will involve counting out bears and matching them to the numeral and number of squares available ( M: Numbers ).

In small groups we will also be going on a bear hunt, collecting up as many as we can find and counting them as we go along!

Finally all of the children will be taking turns doing a bear sponge painting activity ( PD ).


                                                   

Farm To Fork

This is Farm to Fork week and all year groups will also be looking at this subject .

We will be talking about growing, where food comes from, looking at different foodstuffs, and more importantly eating some of it!

Activities will be apple threading ( PD ) to put on our painted wall tree and vegetable printing.

We will have the shop and farmyard to play with, to further encourage discussion.

The children will be making their own cheese sandwiches for snacktime, as we talk about how cheese is made.

We'll be reading the book Produce From The Farm and Ten Seeds.

Please feel free to bring in any foodstuffs to add to our display !

We will break up for half term on Friday returning on Mon 23rd, enjoy the week and tell us what you got up to on a wow slip!
