Phonics

This week Mrs Stone's group have revisited all phase 3 Phonics sounds.

Mrs Robinson's group have started to learn Phase 4. We have been tuning into the penultimate consonant in words, for example must (st), went (nt) and chimp (mp).

Mrs Cliffe's group have been revisiting igh and tricky words.

Drawing Club

This week we have been watching clips from Roadrunner.

We designed our own super-fast friend for roadrunner, and thought of a new way to capture the coyote.

Maths

This week we continued  to make different amounts with money. 

R.E.

This week we continued to learn about being a good neighbour.

We discussed what we remembered from the story of the Good Samaritan and we drew our own pictures of us being kind to others.

PSHE

This week, as part of transition to Year 1, we thought about different questions to ask the teachers.

Physical Development

This week we completed obstacle courses and team games.

Expressive Art and Design

We continued with our matchbox art this week, adding the different parts, like sand, the sea and sea animals.

We started a whole class collage of a London cityscape.

Forest School

We learnt about the summer solstice. This means that in the northern hemisphere, where we live, the sun is at its highest point in the sky. It's also the longest day of the year - and the shortest night.This day falls on Saturday 22nd June. We made sun decorations using wool.
