Teddy bears picnic

If you came into school today you would find Year One is having a teddy bear's picnic!

Plasticine nativity

This morning our class have been making characters from the nativity story out of plasticine. They have made angels, shepherds, sheep, Mary and Joseph and of course baby Jesus.

The Nativity

Year One and Reception have been very busy for the last few weeks getting ready for their nativity performances. The performances went really well. The children spoke their lines clearly and sang with beautiful voices! Like professional actors, the children didn't even flinch when the set almost fell over. Its lucky there were some guardian angels nearby to catch it!
We hope the audiences enjoyed it!
We would like to thank all the adults for their help and support in making the show!
And thanks also to the parent who supplied us with these fab photos!

Halving

This week in numeracy we have been looking at finding halves and doubles.

Observation skills

We kept up our observation skills at playtime. The children noticed what looked like a rainbow in the sky. Very strange!

Ice investigation

This afternoon we have been investigating ice. We have been making predictions about the place where if would stay frozen the longest and testing to see if we were right. We also held ice cubes and used observation skills to describe the look an feel of them.

Typing skills

In ICT we have been learning how to type using both our hands. It's really difficult!

Making toys from recycled materials

Today we have been learning about how children make toys from recycled materials. We have been making our own toys using wire.

Non fiction writing

Making bears

Today ICT the computers couldn't get onto the Internet so we could not do our planned activity. Instead we used to paint to make some pictures of bears and they were very very good.
