Numeracy and Literacy Obstacle Course
We enjoyed an indoor obstacle course focussing on literacy and numeracy! It was a fun and easy way of practicing our letters sounds and numbers. We also concentrated on positional language, using jump, hop, crawl, through and under.
Houses and Materials
In class we've been exploring materials and objects and trying to utilise found and recycled objects to create houses - we've had lots of discussion about what why and how you would build a house out of a variety of materials, and have gradually been creating art projects to represent our ideas. This week we were lucky enough to have Esther, Ella C's mum, come in for our activity time, to help the kids get a start on their house projects.
The children also painted their own houses, and needed to remember the three basics - roof, windows and walls - have a look and see how your children went with both their writing and their painting.

Term 1 - Week 6 - Broccoli Bites
We cooked Broccoli Bites to carry on our Healthy eating unit. All the children loved the bites and couldn't believe they had broccoli in them! Please ask us for the recipe as they're a quick and easy meal to cook for school lunches.
Term 1 - Week 5 - Potatoes
We planted potatoes, discussed how plants grow, and what the major needs of a plant are. We also discussed bucket filling again and prepared/cooked, from start to finish, and then recorded the process in written and illustrated form. We continued our fish observation drawing and recorded responses to the 'are, have, need' process.
Tying in to our 'growing well' unit, we traced our feet, guessed how many unifix cubes long they were, and then measured exactly how many where required.
