We have amazing fun each day in school.📚 We play with amazing toys 🧸and games 🎯 both inside and outside our classroom. 🛝 Have a look 👀 at our photographs 📷 to see what we have been up to!

Mrs Massey tries her best to add lots of photographs to our page each day so that you and your families can be involved in our learning journey! 🥰

Mrs Massey came up with a fantastic idea for some of the Autumn leaves we collected! 🍁🍁

We have made Autumn Globes (our version of a snow globe) . Have a look at how much fun we have had making them!

Mrs Massey has made a function machine to complete calculations- we are using conkers to help us add on 1. 🧮

We have been painting today with water 💧 on the wall outside our classroom. Look how much fun we are having. 🥰

Challenge - Brush the pom-poms into the correct shapes using the matching paintbrush.

Building a ten frame using conkers.
We have been practising our subsidising skills today playing a game with Mrs Todd to see who can build their ten frame first. We have been working on turn taking and having to, at times, miss a go as we rolled a number that was bigger than the number of spaces we had left on our ten frames. Mrs Todd unfortunately did not win even one game! 🥲

We have gone on a scavenger hunt today! 🦊🐰

Challenge Use the multi link cubes to build the pictures.🍄🌲

Challenge - Use the conkers to follow the lines.

We are practising our pre -writing skills today!✍️✏️

We are finding teddies in the water and in the foam and then sorting them into the correct box according to colour. The teddies in the foam needed a wash before we sorted them! 🧸🛀

Challenge - How many spiders can you find? 🕷️🕸️

It was absolutely fantastic to have all the parents in our room on Friday 19th September - it was such a treat to let you all see what we get up to each day! Thank you all so much for taking the time to come! ⭐️

We are taking part in lots of STEM activities. STEM is an acronym and it stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths. It helps us discover real world applications, sparks creativity and develops our 21st century skills.

Scroll through all our photographs to see how many STEM activities we are involved in.

We painted our hedgehogs today, aren’t they gorgeous!🦔

Today was all about developing our hand muscles, a super start for beautiful handwriting! We are using clothes pegs to put spikes on hedgehogs. 🦔 We are also using our Numeracy skills to count within 10!

We have made hedgehogs 🦔 today using Model Magic . Their eyes are made using cloves and we’ve used scissors ✂️ to make their spikes. All that is left to do is paint them brown! 👨‍🎨🎨
