When the sun shines we really enjoy taking our learning outside.

 

We love doing role-play in our Mermaids cave and seeing what sea creatures and treasure we can find.

 

In maths this half term we have been looking at halves and quarters. we toasted some bread and then cut them up into halves and also quarters. We then ate our toast - yum yum!!

Under the Sea

I hope you have all had a brilliant Easter holidays.

Our new topic this next term is

Under the sea

We will be looking at and finding out information about sea creatures and their lives under the sea.
We will also be covering electricity in science and are hoping to make our very own lighthouses.
Our topic will cover lots of fantastic under water stories such as; The little Mermaid, Finding Nemo, The Rainbow Fish and Commotion in the Ocean.

If you have any under the sea resources that you may have collected on previous holidays please bring them in for us to have a look at.
I will be bringing in my starfish for us to look at and write information texts about.  

Our trip to Eureka

Last week year 1 and 2 went on a trip to Eureka in Halifax.
We had a fantastic day and all the children really enjoyed enhancing their learning in Science.

 We visit the 'Halifax' bank and pretended to draw out some money from the cash machine.

 We were lucky to eat our lunch on a train.

 We had lots of fun playing outside in the gigantic sandpit - the children's favourite as they kept saying.

One of the children even said 'Miss Conning please can we come back again next week' :-)

World book day

On 7th March children came dressed as their favourite character from a book. We had a fantastic day discussing our favourtie book, even Miss Conning dressed up as Peter Rabbit in a bunny onesie!!

We're going on a Teddy Bear hunt

This week in literacy we have been looking at the story 'We're going on a bear hunt', but we decided to change the story to fit with out topic 'Toys'.
We decided to change it to 'We're going on a Teddy Bear hunt'.

We role played the story using the outdoor environment to see if we could find where Mr Bear was hiding.
