Happy and Healthy – planting seeds
|
A walk around the Forest School looking for signs of life inspired us all to get planting our own seeds this week. You have all had the chance to plant your seed in soil – the hard part is the next part where we have to find ways to make them grow!

Music
|
Old King Glory
|
Following on from the special celebrations last Saturday, it seemed the right time to introduce this song. We have enjoyed choosing a King or Queen to lead the trail around the circle and choose some friends to “follow me”!

The Excavator Song, Blippi
|
Johan, you have surprised us all with this choice – thank you! After some classic artists, we didn’t think Blippi would get us moving as much as he did! We love this song. Making the excavator shape with our arms and using our wrists to scoop the mud has certainly given us an upper body workout!

Listening Game
|
Spring Bingo with a twist
|
We played the game again but this time you really had to help Mrs Mander when her words kept getting all jumbled. She couldn’t work out what the pictures were – was it plossom, flossom or blossom that grows on the trees???

Phonics
|
The elephant sound, e
|
Those naughty elves have made a return!!! We couldn’t believe it!!! We found Lucas’ face turned upside down and today, they had snipped all the pictures off our names so now we have to recognise and read our name without picture clues – grrrrr. Our friends Eric, Elsie and Effy didn’t do the best job at keeping them out of mischief!!!

Maths
|
Reading dice 1-6
Making dice patterns
|
As we joined from Forest School, we did a little revisit to check we can read our dice numbers to 6. Seeing number patterns like dice, numicon, in a row is something we have been working towards all year and you have almost got it. To put this learning into practice, you worked with a friend to show the dice pattern using bottle lids.

Oliver’s Vegetables,
Vivian French
|
Mrs Allen made the story this week come to life as she raided her fridge and brought along her own vegetables for you to explore with your senses. She also taught you how you can print with them!

The Trim Trail
|
This week we have mostly enjoyed running around in circles on the grass. This is excellent practice for our upcoming Sporting afternoon. It is going to be quite a challenge now to teach you running and staying in lines.
