We enjoyed looking at our baby photos and guessing who was who. One thing is for sure, class 1 were the cutest babies ever 😍

Critique Detectives

11th January 2023Laura Parsons

I have been blown away by class 5 this morning! Not only did we write a fantastic postcard class model to Lulu the donkey (from our core text!) but we critiqued it to decide how we could make our independent work tomorrow even more incredible!

I can’t wait to see what you all produce!

Wise Wednesday – Being Healthy

11th January 2023Laura Parsons

We had a busy crew meeting this morning! We have been thinking about why it is important to be not just physically healthy, but mentally healthy too. We created an anchor chart – we have pledged to try as many of the things on our mental health list before the end of the year! Great job Crew Parsons xx

Tranquil Tuesday

11th January 2023Laura Parsons

We started our morning yesterday reflecting on how we were feeling using our zones of regulation. Next we thought about how the characters in our core text might be feeling at different points in the story. We had some very mature conversations – great job year two.

Class Two Meet Baby Nathaniel

9th January 2023Rebecca Kendrew-Jones

This week we are hooking into our spring term expedition ‘How do things grow and change?’. To launch this we had a very exciting visit from Baby Nathaniel who came into school with his Mummy to meet all the children in Class Two. Nathaniel is only 9 weeks old and needs a lot of love and care from his Mummy which is something we learned all about this morning.

We had a wonderful time hearing all about the things that babies can and can’t do and what a Mummy uses to look after them and help them to grow. The children loved finding objects hidden inside a baby’s sleeping bag including a bottle, dummy, muslin, toy, book, nappy and blanket.

Looking at all of Nathaniel’s things lead to a brilliant discussion on whether the children still use those objects or if they need different things now they are older.

The children were very calm and gentle with Nathaniel and really enjoyed meeting him this morning. He will be coming back into school again at the end of our expedition so we can see how he has grown and changed in that time. We are looking forward to it already!

Vegetable tasting in Nursery

9th January 2023Sarah Winkley

Today in Nursery we tried a variety of vegetables the colour of a rainbow, as part of our expedition on “How do things grow and change?” Most children were very brave and adventurous trying some vegetables for the first time and others that they are more familiar with. They were asked to choose three as we are practising counting to that number this week. The vegetables included; Cucumber, Red and Yellow Peppers, Radish and Carrot.

Hook Week Fun

5th January 2023Emma Powell

We are having great fun learning all about music this week. We have enjoyed listening and dancing to Abba songs (our musician of the week). We have also made our own songs up and have been exploring musical instruments. We are looking forward to an exciting expedition this term.
