FS2 find out about Black History Month

FS2 listened to the story called The Colours of Us. If you'd like to hear it again, there's a video below.

We  noticed that everyone in class had a different skin tone, just like in the story. 

Our heart made with our hands

Looking after our teeth!

In FS2 this week we have been thinking about looking after our teeth.

We discussed how to look after our teeth. All the children said they need to brush their teeth on a morning and at night before bed. They could all explain which foods are bad for our teeth and which foods are healthier for us.

We do know a lot about looking after our teeth but some of us have not been to visit a dentist before. We then talked about what it is like at the dentist, what will happen when you go there and why it is important to visit the dentist every 6 months.

To help us with this we watched a film about going to the dentist and read a story about Kipper visiting the dentist.

We have a slideshow of some photos.

Write back and tell me about your toothbrush, what colour is it?

Our learning in FS2

We've had another great week. FS2 have been finding letter sounds, recognising numerals and counting pegs.

Look out for the Trim Trail in the slide show below.

Drawing inside the box

FS2 love playing with cardboard boxes. When I saw this big one ready to be thrown away, I knew FS2 would like it in class. In this photo you can see Connor inside it with a friend. They are writing and drawing in it.

Here is a link to Poisson Rouge, the website we use in class

PE and the parachute!

Our PE topic this term is; 'Sense of Space.'

We have been working on using the space in the hall safely and becoming more spatially aware as we move around.

We have now moved onto developing spatial awareness whilst using the parachute.

Have a look at the slideshow.

Big Talk

Here is the Big Talk photo for this week

This week’s task is slightly different to last week.

You have to use your imagination and make suggestions of how this object could be used.

Could be for cutting something?

Could it be used to hang things from?

Does it belong to a giant?

Could a family of mice use it?

Another busy week in FS2

Here is this week's slide show

Big Talk

Here is our Big Talk display in class.

Children are encouraged to independently write down what they can see.
I can spot lots of phonetically spelt words!

We had another fantastic session today, with lots of new vocabulary.
Thank you parents for your support.
