Class of 2031 (Rec)

Yesterday we were scientists.  We explored what happened to raisins when they are submerged in fizzy water.  We watched them dance and it was fascinating! The we predicted how many cotton wool balls we could fit into a shot glass filled to the top with water and we were amazed to discover that we…

Continuing on from last week we developed our ball skills by bouncing and catching the ball before travelling whilst bouncing and controlling the ball.  

Following on from Mrs Mc~~Meakins’s blog about learning new ball skills RA took part in a PE lesson yesterday to improve their skills.  We found it quite tricky to hit the target using balls and swapped to bean bags to see if that helped.  The children have loved completing the circuit of…

As part of our topic work on Desert to Garden, today we talked about, and made a Lenten Promise.  We discussed how spring is a special time for growing and that Lent is also a special time to grow. To grow as a person and be more like Jesus.  The children talked about how they could grow during…

On Tuesday we talked about the change in our season and hoe much nicer the weather seems.  We took a tick list and set off around school searching for signs of spring.  We were so lucky to find lots of things - flowers, buds, birds. The children enjoyed exploring the garden and yard for these…

This week the children have been taking part in their weekly PE sessions. This half term we have been focussing on ball skills. This week we explored throwing balls at a target using one hand. We had a circuit of different activities including aiming at a target, throwing under ropes, in hoops and…

We may have only just returned to school after the half term break but the children are already excited for Easter!  They have created an Easter house using the magnetic tiles.  Lots of lovely language and cooperative play.

Our classes found a suitcase with lots of items inside all related to our new book!!  The children were really excited to explore what had been left for them and to see their new book.  The Journey Home by Emma Levey

We have been talking about how we are welcomed into school, our homes and our church. How we say good morning to each other, wear smiles on our faces and take care of one another. We talked about how we are part of Jesus’ family and how Jesus welcomes Everyone. We made banners decorated with our…

Today we have been working in partners to represent numbers 6, 7 and 8. Either the numeral or numicon was shown to the children showing 6, 7 or 8. They then, in partners, worked out what number was being shown and represented this on a 10s frame. 

We love to share our Home School Diaries with each other. Every Friday we sit in small groups and discuss our weeks home task. We love to listen to one another, ask questions and find out about our learning! 

The cubes have created lots of excitement in class and today the children were trying to build a tower that was taller than the teacher! Lots of great mathematical language was used and the children had lots of fun.
