Weekly News 2.5.25

This week:

In Literacy, we have been reading 'Little Red Reading Hood' by Lucy Rowland. This story uses the characters from Little Red Riding Hood but with a different version of events. The children have enjoyed spotting the similarities and differences between them.

In Maths, we have continued to count beyond 10 and we have been working out the missing numbers and identifying numbers from a description about them.

In Geography, we have been looking at maps of the United Kingdom and finding out about the capital cities. We have also looked at different landscapes and whether they are home or away locations.

In P.E, we have been pushing a ball with our hands and feet to control it and continue to practise retrieving a ball.

In Music, we are telling musical stories and using instruments to add music to familiar tradition tales.

In Science, we are working on forces and thinking about how a push or pull force affects an object.

In continuous provision in the classroom the children have been making their own story books, investigating magnets, making wolf ears, and playing in the sun.
