MATHS In maths we have been learning to recognise numbers 1-10 through structures. We practised writing numbers on sand using our fingers and brushes. We also enjoyed making and drawing patterns on butterflies. | LITERACY In literacy we had fun listening to and looking at a wide range of story books such as Elmer, The Very Hungry Caterpillar and Farmer Duck. We looked at fiction and non— fiction books and also discovered what an illustrator and an author are and what they contribute to the book? |
Learning Journey We have been looking at ladybirds as part of our Mini-Beast topic. We have looked at their colours and counted their spots. We made our own paper ladybirds and celebrated our learning topic with our EXIT POINT going on a field trip to ISPP's Butterfly Garden and saw lots of beautiful butterflies of different sizes and colours. We had a lovely time! | |
