Week 5

The children thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Jesmond Dene, we saw lots of animals, explored the park, petted a rabbit and went on a senses walk. The rest of the week has been busy, the children have been comparing numbers, labelling the wolf, asking historical questions and enjoying outdoor maths. 

Week 4 

Another jam-packed week in the Daffodil class. The children have enjoyed writing what the characters in Little Red Riding Hood might have said. In maths, they are super at giving one more and one less and can compare amounts with mathematical language. In science, they enjoyed learning about carnivores, herbivores and omnivores. In history they have been sharing memories of how the celebrate their birthdays. Next week they will be looking at the lives of children in the past. Please talk to your child about what your childhood was like.
