What's going on this week...


Hello everyone,

Firstly, you may have noticed a fish tank at the back of the class this morning. In here we are going to watch some frog spawn grow before releasing it into the pond we have on site. Already, the frog spawn have emerged as tadpoles and have begun swimming around. We have tasked the children to come up with some names.

This week we are going to be moving our focus from day and night to sea turtles and how they use the day and night time to benefit themselves. In literacy we are going to be looking at life cycles and poems and in maths we are looking at doubling and halving in more detail as well as addition of 2 single digits. 
We have also begun doing whole class PE to encourage more independence and perseverance from children. As and when the weather allows we will be doing our PE outside from now on. As the children have grown it may be the case where they need new PE pumps but we will strive to let you know if this is the case.

  1. What a task it will be naming how many tadpoles? And how will the children recognise Fred from Mary, Lilly from Bob, Daphne from Olaf! Sounds like lots of fun!

  2. Indeed! The children seem very sure which one is which. I wish I had their observation skills!
