Christmas is coming, Rehearsals have started!

.........another week is over!
The children have worked so hard this week and have learnt all about the play that they will be performing to their Mummy's and Daddy's on the 13th and 14th December.
Look at Gabrielle, Onur and Denni-Mia making the Christmas sleigh with their bodies.

As always we have been very creative and this week the children have been making houses, kites and colourful dream catchers.

Chelsie made a wonderful kite all on her own                                           

 Zak spent a lot of time designing and making a house. Look at all the windows on his house.

 

 

 

 



          Jessica wrapped lots of boxes up to make a very shiny bungalow.

 

 

We have learnt 4 new sounds this week and if you are following the sounds in the little red phonics book we are now up to and including the sound 'ck'.

 

This week we have worked really hard at recognising and ordering numbers and are getting really good at using the + and = signs.

Have a go at using these signs this weekend on numbers up to 10.

 

 

Every child worked with an adult this week and ordered numbers 0-5, 0-10 and 0-20.

 

 

Just a reminder that parents are invited into class on Monday 3rd December for 20 minutes to see how we teach a Phonics session. This will involve learning a new sound and activities that you might want to try at home.

Have a great weekend and we'll see you on Monday.

Story Week

Hello Ladybird parents!

 

I am very sorry that there wasn't a blog last week, but I was on a super course at the Archive Centre in Norwich which I can thoroughly recommend!

 

Whilst I was away the children raised a lot of money, dressing up for a non-uniform day!
Look at the amazing Pudsey bear that the children made!

 

As ever we have had a very busy week in Ladybird Class. We have been looking at colour and researched a very talented artist called Mondrian.
Have a look at our wonderful display when you bring your child into school on Monday.

 

The children have had a very exciting week again looking in our 'Sound box'.
The children are now up to 'k' in the red sound books. So if you have any free time at the weekend don't forget to look through the book and ask your child to show the actions to you. The children are also able to blend a few of these sounds together into words such as – as, at, pin, sat, mat, pat, cat, dad, dog and kit.

Look at Victoria's work with the bean bag letters.

 

As ever we have been very creative and have made lots of things to help us with this week's topic.

 

Look at Bethany's wonderful glasses that she made to see different colours through.

 

We have been working hard with our numbers this week and I would like to say a big 'Thank you' to all of the support that you have been giving your child at home, it really is helping with their number work in school!

This week's main focus has been on days of the week so if you have a spare few minutes whilst travelling in the car or when you are cooking tea. Ask your child what the day is today, yesterday and tomorrow!

 

Thank you to all parents who came to the class story-time on Thursday. We really were delighted that you were there and if you would like to read at the next one then please let us know. Thank you again to Jack's mum.

 

Have a lovely weekend and we will see you bright and early on Monday morning.

Fireworks!

Wow!
What a week we have had this week.
We have learnt the sounds S A T P and we are starting to use them around the classroom. Why not ask your child about the sounds and practise the actions with them?

We have done lots of work this week in Numeracy on adding two numbers and can recognise the symbols  +   and    =   . We also have some actions for these signs to show you.

Our main focus this week has been on Fireworks and we have drawn, made, danced and coloured lots of fireworks.

 Look at our wonderful firework dance.
We watched the fireworks in our PE lesson and
became rockets, Catherine wheels and Sparklers.

Ashton and Ellise are helping each other to make

  sparklers out of straws and paper.





Zak, Callum and Jack had a lovely time making
motorbikes out of our outside toys.
                                      




See you next week.
