The children have loved picking the sunflower seeds from the head of the flower. It was great for our finger muscles! 😁 We are keeping the seeds and will plant them in the summer term 🌻☀️

The children have enjoyed listening to and acting out the story ‘Owl Babies’. We definitely have some budding actors in the making 🌟😊

Class 1 have been thinking about what crew is. They came up with some beautiful answers…

Crew is making someone a picture. Crew is pushing in the chairs so no one falls over. Crew is getting smart together. Crew is tidying up as a team. Crew is playing together and never leaving anyone alone. Crew is helping someone if they are sad. Crew is being kind and praising each other. Crew is being happy.

Here are some photos of us being Crew ❤

The children have absolutely blown me away in our phonics sessions this week. Here we are hard at work writing our new graphemes..

Well done Class 1 👍 xx

What an amazing start to the year! There has been lots of smiles and laughter 😃

We’ve had fun in our reading area…

We’ve built some incredible models…

We’ve baked some jam tarts 😋

We’ve done some colour mixing…

It’s safe to say we’ve been busy! I have no doubts that this is going to be a happy year for us all 🥰😊 xx

The children in Reception had great fun taking part in our sports day this morning. We would like to say a huge well done to all of them. They showed amazing support for one another and behaved impeccably. We are very proud of them all!

After another week hard at work, we ended it with ice lolly treats…

We’ve been getting creative with the paints…

We’ve made some super models in our construction area.

We’ve been working together in maths looking at representing numbers up to 10.

We have enjoyed den building outside 😀

Thank you for working so hard class 1! You are all amazing! 👏 xx

This week in Maths we have been practicing our doubles and have been solving sharing problems. Super mathematicians in the making 🥰😊 xx

This week in reception we have been reading ‘Whatever Next’. In the story Baby Bear makes a rocket and takes off to the moon. In our crews we decided to build our own rockets using various materials. The children demonstrated great team work skills and had some amazing ideas…

They worked so hard we decided to reward their efforts with a biscuit in the sunshine 🌞 Great work reception 👏 👍 😀
