Newsletter 13.06.2014

Children in F2 have been enjoying listening to and acting out parts in the story Snow White. We have taken out various Fairytales costumes that they can use and all of them were very eager to wear princesses, kings and knights clothes. Some of them still are very enthusiastic about making potions in the Investigation area. They even put the potion in the apple to make it poisonous for their role play. 

We have been using a FREE iPad app in the classroom called Snow White by TabTale. You might want to download one for your child to also use at home.

Please also see the link Princess Long Ago to listen to and sing along with the song.

In Maths, children have been doing lots of counting activities such as:

* counting/tapping body parts to 20.

* counting backwards - rocket blast off

* counting jumps, star jumps and hops

In the swimming pool, children have shown more confidence exploring the area. Ms Cheska played a game with them called 'Salmon says'. All of them were able to do the actions Ms Cheska told them to do such as 'chin in the water', 'rain drops on your head', 'wash your face' and 'turn around'. We are very pleased to see that all F2 are enjoying this activity so much and they are showing their swimming skills confidently.

Out in the main playground, we have been enjoying using the 'Dome', 'Supernova' and the bikes! They have been showing increasing confidence using these resources with no support from their teachers.

We have also been doing lots of activities on Rhyming and Alliteration. Please see the youtube video of a song they have been singing in Music with Mr Robbie.
