Shape

Over the last 2 weeks, we have looked at 2d and 3d shapes.

The children have looked at identifying and talking about the properties of the shapes.

They have made shape patterns, shape pictures, built with 3 d shapes, made straw nets and clixi 3d shapes. The children have enjoyed singing – https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=guNdJ5MtX1A

Here are a few interactive games:

We do however have another treat for the class. This Friday and the following 2 Fridays the children in class 1 will take part in some tennis coaching sessions. We will send your child’s PE kit home with them, so that they can come into school wearing their PE kit on a Friday am. We will continue to have PE on a Monday afternoon, so please send their kit back in on a Monday morning.

Half term Junk model instruments and Mardi Gras

On Tuesday 6^th of March the we will be having a Mardi Gras celebration day. The colours of Mardi Gras are Green, gold and purple, and we would like all the children to come to school wearing one, two or even all of those colours on that day.

On the day we will have a parade around school wearing our masks and playing our instruments, plus lots more Carnival fun.

Over the half term we would like children in Class 1 to make a musical instrument to bring into school on the first week back. We would love to see what they can create using empty cereal boxes/tubes/ food packaging etc. Don’t forget to put photos up on Tapestry of their creating.

The children will then get a chance to show the rest of the class their handiwork and the whole class will use them as part of our Mardi Gras celebrations.

We are also collecting junk modelling so that the children can do more junk modelling during Child Initiated times.
