We have had quite a week this week in Chestnut Class, with Chinese New Year celebrations, extra hand washing and a visit from a small green vegetable villain!
At the start of the week, we celebrated Chinese New Year where the children learnt all about what preparations take place before and the celebrations in the days after the Lunar New Year. Miss Penny led a brilliant assembly telling us all about how the years came to have their animal names. This year being the Year of the Snake. We had an afternoon of making lanterns and had a go at Chinese calligraphy. Year 1 worked incredibly hard at the start of the week finishing their Astro Girl booklets and we are starting our new story of Toys in Space. They also did some fantastic work in Maths across the week looking at greater than, less than and equal to. Within science this week, we have learnt all about the planets and came up with our own way to remember the order. Drawing club has been all things Supertato and everyone has enjoyed creating a new villainous vegetable and ways they can help save Supertato from the Evil Pea! Reception took advantage of the sunny afternoon on Thursday and went onto the playground to draw around their shadows, Miss Warwick and each other. They also all had a go at writing their names next to their shadow drawings. In Maths, reception have looked at odd and evens numbers, counting to 10 and using 3 to make 6 and 9. I hope everyone has a healthy weekend, keep hand washing and enjoy the small amount of winter sunshine. Miss Warwick and the team Comments are closed.
