Practise Makes Perfect!

During the last week we have started to practise all of our songs that we will be singing in our Christmas play next month! We are all getting very good at remembering our words and remembering to sing in big voices so that all of our grown ups who will come to watch us in our play will be able to hear our beautiful singing voices. Today we have decided which parts we would like to play and our teachers have started to help us with any words and dances that we need to remember to make our play look amazing! Our words will be coming home with us soon so we can start to practise at home too. We are all very excited!

Let's go fly a kite!

Mrs Ward's group were learning the sound 'k' today. To help them remember it they took a kite outside and had lots of fun flying it. Today's cold, windy weather was good for something after all!

A special visitor

Ms Whimster from St Giles Nursery came to visit us this week.  It was lovely to show her how clever and settled we all are at big school.

Ms Whimster gave the children their Nursery Learning Journeys back so they could go home. The children loved looking back at things they had done in Nursery.

Dough Disco

We have so much fun in Foundation!

We know that we need to work on making our fingers stronger as some of us find holding a pencil difficult.  this means we can not make our letter shapes properly. 

We have decided to give our fingers a daily work out. We are going to have a 'Dough Disco' every day so we can make our fingers strong while we have lots of fun!

We rolled and squished and squeezed the dough!

It was hard work but lots of fun!

Star Awards

As part of our 'Celebrate' topic we have spent the week making new friends and watching them to see what they are good at.  We made each other special star medals and wrote certificates for our friends. We celebrated everyone and what they were good at doing at a special awards ceremony this morning.  Lots of our friend and families came to join our celebration too.
