Owlets have had a busy and productive week. They did some excellent writing reflecting on their half term activities. They also made some streamers and went outside to enjoy flying them in the wind that we are currently experiencing! Using their imaginations, they then created themselves as SuperHeroes! Ask your child what they decided on…
Owlets have been busy developing their handwriting and having a go at forming sentences about The Tiger Who Came To Tea. They have looked at the number 7 and thought about Valentines Day next week.
Owlets looked at the life cycle of a chicken this week and could be heard singing along to Dingle Dangle Scarecrow!
They cleverly turned their hand prints into chickens.
Pupils from Owlets were busy learning all about the farm this week. They discussed what different farm animals give us and they sang along to Old MacDonald Had a Farm with percussion instruments and even had a go on the new Glockenspiels!
They made their very own sheep and then tried estimation and weighing using the scales for some of the maths this week.
We went outside to explore the frost and ice one cold morning this week. We did some writing in the frost and explored the textures and used different words to describe e.g. slippery, sparkly, spiky, crunchy. We also all chose a frozen leaf and then brought it inside to see what would happen over time.
We did some weighing in our role play farm shop, and drew a map of our school on the blackboard.
We are practicing our pencil control with neat colouring and handwriting linked to our farm topic.
This week we have started our Down on the Farm topic. We’ve been identifying which animals live on the farm and doing some classifying.
The Owlets have done a fantastic job of writing independently this week. Here are some examples:
In maths they are observing how shape is all around us and learning the names of 2D shapes:
They have also decorated their classroom!
Owlets were able to create patterns and explore the nature all around them, including collecting the autumnal leaves.
They continue to build their word knowledge with independent writing and are learning 2D shapes in maths.
