This week we've been busy reading the story 'Monkey Puzzle' by Julia Donaldson. We've loved learning about baby animals and how not all of them look like their parents. We are also busy creating all the elements we need to have our very own jungle in the classroom.
Our phonics lessons are going fantastically, and the progress the children have made since September is phenomenal. If you want to practice any of these skills at home you can get them to write their name, any of our 's,a,t,p,i,n' sounds, or play i-spy. Regular par makes all the difference!
Enjoy the weekend

Unfortunately we couldn't go to forest school this week as so many children didn't have their coats. Instead we made fire safety posters ready for the fire pit next week.
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 1
