Year 1
Hello Everyone,
We have had a great first week back and the children have really enjoyed meeting the new children in the class and have made them feel very welcome which has been lovely. The children have loved exploring out in the garden and have found all types of different bugs under the logs and wooden branches.
Monday we settled back in and loved playing with all the messy activities we had on offer!
Tuesday the children did some really great worm creations and thought really hard about how many worms they wanted to put on their pictures. They children also enjoyed using lots of different textures to create with.
Wednesday the children painted and crafted a large hungry caterpillar to put up on display. This was great fun and all the children worked together really well.
Thursday the children made some little caterpillars and did some great cutting and sticking and really thinking about patterns and what colours they would like to use.
On Friday we did some great bug hunting out in the garden. The children wanted to pick up the bugs and were very interested about how they moved and how many legs they had. They also wanted to know why they lived under logs and how they got their food.
This week we will be continuing with our insect investigations. We have lots of fun investigations planned.
Jennie Jigsaw
This week we will continue talking about ‘Being friendly’ focusing on what we like about others in the class. Jennie the Jigsaw has been coming to our group times and talking to the children all about having kind hands and she talks to the children about the positive things she's been seeing during the day. (Jennie is a soft toy)
Letters and Sounds
This week we will start to play Teddy lost in the room. Someone goes out of the room. We hide the teddy in the room. When the person returns, we bang the drum loud if they are close to where the teddy is and soft if they are far away from it. The children all take turns with this game.
Notices
If you have any questions then please come and talk to Zoe and we can talk through them together.
If you have a play and learn library bag please can you return it to us that would be great. Families seem to be making great use of these resources which is fantastic.
If you think the weather looks hot enough for sun cream during the day, if you could apply this before you arrive at Pre-School this would be a really great help to us. We will put out the suncream list and you can tick off your child’s name at drop off in the morning.
Can you this weblink https://whatimreading.org/ to make a poster of your families favourite book this week? We are going to display them in the window for everyone to see. If you need your poster printing please email it to me.
