This week we have jumped into our traditional tales by reading 'The Enormous Turnip', and it has been a big hit with the children! We have enjoyed acting out the story, drawing a story map using a large roll of paper on the floor, looking at a real life turnip and we really liked getting sticky by knocking up some paste and doing some paper mache! You'll have to keep checking back for updates on how our class turnip turns out.
As well as that we've been continuing to work on hearing blends in words and writing our initial sounds using super pencil grip. Some of us are even starting to write some simple words!
Next week we begin banding up our t-shirts ready to dye them for sports day. If you forgot them then Monday is the LAST opportunity we have, so make sure they are named and handed to a member of staff at morning drop off.
Have a great weekend, see you on Monday,
Ms Munro, Mrs Roberts and Mrs Shew
As the weather is changeable at the moment you may wish to send your child in with a sun hat, but please, as always, make sure everything is labelled! A gentle reminder that we are unable to reapply sun cream and children should not have this in their bags. This should be applied at home before children come in. Children may also need a jacket for the chilly, windy mornings and a pair of welly boots always come in handy for when we are doing water play!
These are the core texts we will be using in Summer 2
