Houses and Homes



FS2 this week in literacy and numeracy are looking at dinosaurs and dinosaur eggs. We have a rather large egg in the classroom and the children have been thinking about what might be inside including suggestions it may be a dragon egg, lizard egg or duck egg.
They have also been comparing different sized eggs.

Year 1 this week are looking at diaries and today began by reading 'Diary of a Wombat'. The children wrote a thinking bubble as to what Wombat might be dreaming about.
Year 1 began their new topic today 'Houses and Homes'. This afternoon they read the story 'The House on the Hill'. The children talked about different physical landscapes where people have their homes including hills, flat land and valleys. They thought of advantages for each landscape.

Many thanks for encouraging your child with their 'Helping Hands' task this weekend. They enjoyed telling each other about the job that they had done to earn their 25p for Kasper.

REMINDER: All children in Class 1 have permission to have an extra snack from their lunch box. Please ensure there is a suitable snack available such as fruit or veg. Children are not allowed 'packaged' food at snack time.
