We shared lots of books  in class today and talked to each other about the characters we were dressed as.

We looked at different types of flowers in our Scotforth garden. We spotted daffodils, crocus’ and bluebells too. We looked at how they started- as bulbs. 

When we went on out autumn walk, we spotted the green leaves that had fallen down and collected cookers in their spikey casing.

When we came to see the tree in winter, we saw it had lost most of it’s leaves. 
 

Today we came back too see if had changed. We could now see big brown buds at…

We spotted patterns when counting in 2s on an 100 square.

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.
