It was wonderful to see all the children on Tuesday morning. They were all so happy and enthusiastic as they returned to school.
There is huge excitement about our new topic of Castles, knights, dragons, princesses and princes! The children (and staff) are very much looking forward to the Dress up Day, Class trip and the assembly!
In maths the children are focusing on numbers to 20. They are looking at different ways of representing the number 20, counting in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s to reach 20 (and beyond).
The children then wrapped up warm for a practical lesson in ‘nature’s classroom’ in our grounds, finding natural resources to represent the number 20. Some children chose twigs in two groups of 10. Some children made groups of five with pine cones and some children made groups of two.
It was a wonderful lesson and all the children were completely immersed in the activity.
