We have spent time talking about staying safe using the NSPCC Speak out Stay safe programme. We made our own Buddies to help us remember to always follow his advice and Speak out, Stay safe.
In Maths we used 5 Little Speckled frogs to help us to find different ways of making 5, finding more/less and to begin ways of how to record number sentences and number formation.
Our Mystery Storyteller shared a story about Pirates and school. The children loved the parrot and asked some great questions. Thank you for sharing a story with us! 🦜
😊

This week we have enjoyed The Emperor’s Egg by Martin Jenkins. The children enjoyed learning about the lifecycle of a penguin, learning some penguin facts and cutting out 2d shapes to create a penguin.
In maths the children have been measuring using cubes and thinking about measuring and counting carefully.
We had a duo for our mystery storyteller this week and really enjoyed one of our favourite stories, and we also asked some good questions. Thank you for coming to read us a story.
We have enjoyed sharing more of the Winter Wonderland creations. They have been amazing and the children have really enjoyed sharing them.
Happy Weekend

It has been lovely having our first full week back in school.
In maths this week we have been working on our number sense and different ways to represent numbers. We found our counting skills very useful in Forest School as we counted how many hoops we had as we threaded them onto pipe cleaners to make bird feeders. We currently have two robins who are very interested in them.
In PE we listened carefully to instructions and worked hard on our spatial awareness and to finish off the week we had our first storyteller of the year who read us a super story about dinosaurs and firefighters. We also had the chance to try on a firefighters helmet too! Thank you for coming to visit us.
Have a lovely weekend.

What a super week full of penguin fun. Thank you so much for all the wonderful costumes and homeschool tasks you have created with the children. The children have loved learning facts about penguins, having a penguin huddle, singing penguin songs, comparing how tall they are with an emperor penguin, talking about their penguin creations and having our mystery storyteller with a penguin story which was perfect, so a big thank you to our storyteller too.
Happy weekend

🎄The children were little stars today. Santa was very impressed and enjoyed chatting with the children finding out what they would like for Christmas and what treats they like to leave for him and the reindeers on Christmas Eve. We had lots of fun exploring the farm too. I’m sure everyone will sleep well tonight.
😊

Wow, what a fun packed week.
It all began early in week when we got into our Bird Houses and flew to different continents to develop our geographical knowledge, mixing with children from every year group. Followed by Christmas jumper day and the children’s first Baschurch Primary Christmas dinner. Thursday was a great day morning at the Panto to see Dick Whittington which was great fun. Friday was our awards celebration and our lovely Christingle Service in church, it was a lovely service and so nice to see you there to share it with us.
I haven’t forgot our mystery storytellers but I have forgotten the iPad with the photos on so I will pop those photos on tomorrow!
I will pop a post on later about our trip to Park Hall Park.

What a brilliant but busy week we have had!
We began the week by looking at Oh, Little Jack and we did lots of activities based on the story which the children enjoyed. Some of the activities linked to our story developed our retelling, counting and cutting skills.
We finished off our rudolf plant pots and thank you to everyone who bought one and came to support the school at the Christmas Fayre, it was a great event.
Whoops-a-Daisy Angel is coming on nicely. We have been on the stage a couple of times so we are all aware of where to stand and we have tried our costumes on. Well done to everyone for trying their best to remember songs, words and when to go on stage.
We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday for our performance and tickets will come home in book bags on Monday.
More information regarding the Teddy Bears Picnic and Mystery Storyteller slots will be posted soon.
Wishing you a happy weekend.
😊
