A very proud moment (our class assembly)

 This afternoon the Bears delivered their very first class assembly to the rest of the school. They decided that they would like to perform a re-telling of ‘The Tiny Seed’. The children were given parts of the story in pairs; they wrote a caption, made props, chose costumes then we put each part together to re-tell the whole story. We even had a narrator that told the whole story beautifully!

The seeds blowing in the Autumn winds 


A bird pecking the seed

A seed falling into the Ocean


A weed growing quickly and blocking the light of another plant, killing it


 

Finally 'The Tiny Seed' turned into a beautiful, tall flower


We love this story because 'The Tiny Seed' shows courage and perseverance even though he is faced with challenges along the way.  

We finished by singing a song we've learnt called 'I'm a little sunflower' that explains what a sunflower needs in order to grow.









Well done Bears, you were fabulous and thoroughly entertaining!

Odds and evens investigation

 Today, we've been investigating which numbers are odd and which are even. The children went into the mud kitchen area and counted out flowers, sticks, bugs etc. then split each number of objects into 2 groups to see if they could be shared equally. They then recorded their findings and looked for patterns.  Sharing 3 flowers into 2 groups Looking for bugs to share. Checking to see if one flower can be shared into 2 groups. Recording their findings. Sharing pebbles into 2 baskets.

Comparing numbers to 10

 The receptions have been comparing numbers to 10 in lots of different ways this week. They've thrown beanbags and quoits into a hoop and compared who had landed the most. And compared who rolled the most balls into a hoop. They've competed to see who could thread the largest amount of bobbins in a minute. And sorted bobbins into colours and compared the amounts.

The Extraordinarily Gardener

Image
 The children have been getting stuck into our new book- The Extraordinary Gardener this week. Before reading the story, we used our inference and thought about why the character might be extraordinary. The children decided it must be because of all the unusual creatures and plants growing on the front cover. They didn't think that a child gardening was extraordinary as they all enjoy gardening themselves. In the story, Joe is very creative and creates all sorts of interesting creatures and plants to make the world more exciting. The children have created their own plants and creatures with extraordinary features using various different material. They then wrote about their features and what species they are.
