Hello everybody.
Look at what we have been doing in Ladybird class this week:
Jayden ordered numbers to 30 with a little help from Miss Wright
We had a visit in our playground from a duck
who wanted to be Lenny's friend.
Lenny quite liked the duck too.
Denni-Mia made a Bumble Bee from play doh.
Gabbi spent ages practising her numbers.
More teamwork? Jayden, Jake, Denni-Mia, Callum, Onur and Riley
worked as a team to complete the puzzle.
Harvey had lots of ideas using the bug connex.
He also followed the instructions to make one with the help of
the picture.
This week we have been learning about Bees. We have learnt lots of information that we can tell our parents.
Did you know?
-Bees have 5 eyes (2 big ones, 3 little)
-Bees make their buzzing sound with their wings. The wings go so quickly that it makes the buzzing sound.
-Bees have 6 legs, (the same as a ladybird)
-Honey bees are the same size as a 'Peanut'.
-Queen bees are the 'boss' of the hive. They also live the longest (around 6 years).
The children have really enjoyed learning about bees this week, they have used their knowledge to help write a class story, sentences and think of bee characters that they use and play with.
The children have also used chalk to draw bees, have made small bee puppets and put together all the different body parts and joined them together using split pins.
We have also tasted some honey, mmmmmmm.

In Numeracy this week we have been counting backwards from 20. The children are very confident in counting forwards but a Little more practise in counting backwards would be beneficial.
Practise counting objects in your home both forwards and backwards. How well can your child do it?
We have also been looking at how bee hives have 'tessellating' shapes in them.
The children have been tessellating different shapes so that they 'fit together'.
Here are a few pictures of our ideas:
In Phonics this week we have been looking a little more at Phase 4 tricky words. We have also been looking at ccvc words such as clip, clap, flat and slim.
The children are getting very good at reading them, but still need to listen for that hidden sound to write them.
In PE this week we have been practising balancing, throwing and catching a bean bag. We also showed that we could throw to 3 different distances including shorter and longer distances.
We hope that you have a wonderful Bank Holiday weekend. Don't forget there is no school on Monday, so we will see you all on Tuesday morning ready with your PE kits.
