Alien Day

Please do not forget it is Alien Dress up day on Wednesday 21st October.

Making Aliens

Last week the children spent time making aliens from all your recycling  They followed a painting design and then made an alien.  The children then had to describe the alien in literacy The writing, designs and models are all up in class so feel free to view on the parent consultation evening.

In Maths the children talked about making patterns they used the computers to do this and also did this with 2D shapes.

Learning about the Moon

This week we have read a story about 7 ways to catch the moon, we have also watched clips about the moon.  The children enjoyed the story and used the information from the clips to write what they had learnt about space and the moon.
They have created their own picture of the moon using lovely sparkly embellishments.

For maths the children have been learning how to add.  We have looked at simple addition to 8, and how we use the two amounts to add together and then say how much they have altogether.

Home learning
Just a reminder that this is a collage (picture) of their trip to the farm.  If you are unsure, then there is an example on the class room window.

Phonics/Reading
Please continue to read with your child, and write in their book so we know they have read at home.  I have also highlighted some more words for the children to learn, bringing the total to 10.

Recycling
The children have been making rockets this week and have been very excited with this activity.  After a discussion with the children, they would like to continue this next week.Therefore, please could I ask you to send in some recycling as our collection is low (small or medium boxes, tubes of any kind, plastic bottles, egg cartons etc)
