Pancake races! #PSED #teamwork

[WLMReception @ReceptionWlm]

The children love exploring in story role play area to support our class text. They were so excited to find a beanstalk had grown overnight. They found lots of GIANT clues #lovetoread #roleplay #literacy #PSED #teamwork

We explored the giants castle at the top of the beanstalk. We used key vocabulary such as turrets, arrow slit, drawbridge and moat to create our own castles. #construction #doallyoucan #literacy

Mr wolf’s pancake shop was very busy! #funkyfingers #earlywriting #teamwork

In DT we used skills to chop and prepare the fruit from Handa’s basket. We enjoyed tasting and describing the different flavours and textures. #DT #Communicationandlanguage #understandingtheworld

In PE we used balloons to develop our control and accuracy. We worked as a team to pass the balloon between targets. All the balloons survived the lesson! #teamwork #PE #doallyoucan

Our lovely story area for Handa’s Surprise. The children have been busy caring for the wild animals and drawing pictures of the animals they can see #understandingtheworld #literacy #doallyoucan

Taking on the role of a vet to care for our safari animals. We described the different features of the animals ‘wings, tails, trunk, tusks’ #love #teamwork #understandingtheworld #doallyoucan

Christmas dinner was delicious! Some children experienced the joy of pulling a cracker for the first time 🎉 #joy #love #teamwork #doallyoucan

After reading Stick Man, we used our science knowledge & DT skills to create a new home. We predicted which house will still be standing tomorrow and which material will keep him safe or dry #teamwork #doallyoucan #understandingtheworld

We now have a Grinchy looking tree to decorate (and un-decorate…then re-decorate!)
He brought some Christmas jumpers for us to wear and we have learnt how to fold them neatly back onto the Jumper Shop shelf!

Dimples the Elf brought his magic this week.
He stuck Christmas hats on our photos and put them on the pencils so we could write our cards.
He set up Santa’s grotto with lots of reading, writing and maths activities for us to complete!
