We've had another week of fun learning in Class 1!
In maths we've been learning to count, match numerals to a set, and begun to subitise numbers to 6 - i.e. recognise how many there are in a set up to six without counting - e.g. dots on a dice. We've used number tracks to recognise numerals up to 20.
Percy the Park Keeper also wrote us some letters, asking children for their help in rescuing some of his animals who had got themselves into trouble in our Early Years Area! Rabbit and cockerel got stuck at the top of the sand pit, frog and mouse got stuck at the top of the tower! The children thought about who they could call on for help: policemen, firemen, ambulance crew and inside we set up a hospital for the animals and dolls who had hurt themselves. The children then dressed up and used team work and problem solving skills to rescue the animals. Some children recorded their rescue story in drawings and mark making in the afternoon, others wrote to Percy saying that all the animals were now safe!!
The children have also been making hedgehogs from paper plates and developing their scissor skills!!
Have a great weekend and see you next week!
