As I’m sure the children have told you – as part of this expedition, one of our ongoing case studies is going to be Music. To help us ensure the children are exposed to a wide range of musicians and genres, both past and present, we are going to be having a musician of the week.

We will be listening to music from the artist/s each morning as the children enter the classroom and we will be learning more about the artist as the week goes on.

Each week we will add a playlist to our website and ClassDojo pages, this will enable you to share in the Musician of the Week and listen along at home too!

We had a great time this morning dancing around the classroom to our first musician/s – Abba!

Enjoy,

Today we welcomed the children back into Class 2 by starting to hook them into our next expedition. A doctors surgery has been set up in the classroom and the children have loved role playing many different characters. We heard creative narratives from the patients about their ailments and observed very kind behaviour by the doctors and nurses looking after them. The receptionists worked hard recording patients appointments in the book and answering their phone calls. It’s been great fun!

We started the morning in class five with a hot chocolate, stories by the (interactive!) fire and a very special message from a very important person. 🎅🏻🌟☕️

All the children in Nursery and Reception sang their hearts out during their performances of Wriggly Nativity this week. It was wonderful to see them perform so confidently and share the good news of Christmas with their loved ones ⭐️

Here are some photographs of children in Class 2 enjoying wearing their costumes during our dress rehearsal 😀
