The very hungry caterpillar

Hello Everyone,

We had a great time seeing how much the Caterpillars are eating. The children have also been creating lots of artwork to represent what they can see happening in the little pot!

The Chicks have now gone to the farm where they will be looked after until they are big enough to come and live with the other chickens in the nature garden. 

We had an amazing time with the Grandparents the children really loved showing them what a great time they have at school. 

This week we will be continuing our story focus on ‘The Hungry Caterpillar’ We will be trying some of the foods that the caterpillars like and describing what they taste like.

We will continue our display work and junk model our own caterpillars.

Friendships are developing well in the group and the children are starting to use their reasoning skills when playing in the group.

Letters and Sounds 

This week we will be playing ‘What’s in the box’ which is a listening game to see if we can recognise what may be in the box. We will also play ‘Tappy Sticks.’ This week we will try and make up our own rhythms to let the group copy.

Home Learning 

Please continue to share any Wow’s with us. The children are enjoying looking at the photo’s of each other so if you have any this would be great.
