We had to hunt around the playground finding phonic sounds. Every time we saw one we read it and shouted it out. We all enjoyed our Phonic Hunt.

We have been practising counting in 2’s with objects and numbers.

Today we started our new maths topic all about statistics.  We thought about making tally charts to show different information and created our own tally charts to show our favourite fruit, and to show what passed by the front of school.

Coach Louise has joined us again this half term.  She is teaching us lots of new dance moves.  We also get chance to ‘freestyle’!  Can you tell which of these pictures are freestyle and which are following a routine?

We have worked so hard to sew and decorate our own puppet designs.  Here are just a few of the finished puppets.  Watch this space for even more as they’re completed!!

Here we are making our hand puppets.  We used sewing to join the back and front of our puppet.  We then used sewing or glue to add the details to our puppets.

Here we are using the big apparatus in P.E.  We are getting really brave now and lots of us have ventured all the way to the top of the big apparatus!  The ropes are also proving challenging but every week some of us manage to get a little bit higher.

Our D.T. project this term looks at puppets.  We will investigate the different types before making our own.  Here we are performing our own puppet shows in class.

Today we learnt how to sew using two different types of stitch.  Running stitch was the easiest but we all managed overstitch too.  We are going to use this skill when making a hand puppet next week!

Today we made our own finger puppets using felt.  We used glue to hold the front and back together and discovered this wasn’t always the best thing to use.

We have been looking at chronology and placing key periods of history into the correct order.

Today is the last day of term so we decorated biscuits and had a nice relaxing day after a very busy term!!
