The children have had a wonderfully busy, Christmassy week, spending lots of time practising for their nativity and proudly performing it for their parents. They were absolutely amazing and did such a fantastic job. The excitement continued with a visit to Santaβs grotto, where they had lots of fun and made some very special memories. πβ¨
We had so much fun making our Rice Krispie Christmas puddings today! πβ¨ We practised our measuring, mixing and shaping skills β and the best part was definitely eating them afterwards! π
The children created beautiful Christmas decorations using pine cones they had collected during our forest school sessions. They loved turning their natural treasures into festive crafts to celebrate the season.
This week the children made their very own gingerbread men and followed each step of the recipe. They measured, mixed and shaped the dough carefully, creating delicious gingerbread men! We then had lots of fun decorating them and they tasted even better!
This week Arc 2D went oreinteering in Caldertones Park. Thier aim was to follow a map to find the famous one thousand year old 'Allerton Oak' tree. The children had no trouble following the clues to find the tree then they read all about it and it's rich history.
This week we have been learning about the properties of 2D shapes. We then went on a 'Shape Hunt' around the school to record some of the shapes we saw.
This week the children travelled to a local park to take part in a phonics listening activity. They were given an image sheet of things they should try to identify using only their hearing. They recognised and identified birds singing, children playing, dogs barking, footsteps in dried leaves and other sounds.
