Cold Winter

We have been learning about winter since we got back from Christmas. We have learnt about wrapping up to keep us warm and have made collages of ourselves to show this. We have listened to the story of the Gruffalo's child and been on a 'Big Bad Mouse' hunt in the garden, following the tracks.

We made cold pictures using a ruler to mark out the paper, painting using white, grey, silver and blue. Finally, we made marks on top - dots, lines, zig-zags and circles using marker pens.

Christmas time!

Christmas - what a busy time of year!! We enjoyed taking part in our Christmas concert 'Sparkle' -we learnt lots of songs, which we sang beautifully on the stage. We have also been busy writing letters to Santa and calenders and tree decarations. We can't wait to bring them home to show our parents.

Room on the Broom

Last Thursday Bigfoot (a drama company) came to vist classes 1,2 and 3. They spent the day working with the boys and girls on drama activities based on the story Room on the Broom. On Friday 2 big coaches arrivied and we went on a trip to the New Theatre in Cardiff. We saw Room to the Broom and there was lots of singing and dancing. We really enjoyed the trip!

Divali Celebrations in Class 1

We have been learning about the Hindu festival of Divali (the festival of light). We enjoyed the story of Rama and Sita and we have been making puppets of them. We used clay to make diva lamps to use in our celebrations. We have made rangoli patterns with powders paints in the playground.

It's Autumn

We have been learning about autumn. We put on our wellies and went looking for signs of autumn. it was fun crunching the leaves that had fallen off the trees.We sorted the leaves conkers, acorns and cones that we found into sets. We had a pumpkin in class, it was heavy. We looked at it carefully.When the top was cut off we saw lots of seeds inside.
