Our learning this week

This week we've had lots of rain, but we haven't let this stop our fun.
Look out for the "bottle babies" outside and Mr Edensor, our Headteacher, pops in to spend time on our reading sofa.

Our learning this week on PhotoPeach

Photo of the week

Making chalk paint was really easy and great fun to use. Some children paint letters and other marks on the shed and the boys with the water sprayers are squirting the sounds they can see.

Big Talk Friday 4th October

On Friday FS2 had their very first Big Talk session. (Here is a link to the original  Big Talk post)

Here is the photo we talked about

I was absolutely delighted with the responses from the children, they were very well prepared - Thank you to the grown ups!

Just a few of the observations and suggestions;

  • I think it is a Mummy or Daddy jellyfish protecting the baby
  • I wouldn't go there with out a grown up
  • The tentacles will sting
  • The man is trying to catch the jellyfish
  • My mum saw a jellyfish on the sand at the seaside
  • The man is saving the jellyfish because he is in danger from the chemicals
  • I can see 4 divers
  • The man has an oxygen mask on
What a fantastic start to Big Talk in FS2. Look out for a new Big Talk homework on Tuesday.

This week we celebrate great attitude and learning in FS2

Lewis - Since his 5th birthday, Lewis has had such a change of attitude to his learning. He is now exploring the whole classroom and seeing an activity right through to the end. I am really pleased to see this Lewis and I hope it continues.

Summer is one of my busy learners in class. She enjoys spending time in the mark making area and is showing everyone what an great writer she is.

Our first trip to the library.

On Tuesday this week we had our first trip to Whinmoor library.

We walked there as it is very close to our school.


We had a storytime while we were there and then borrowed a book each, which we brought back to school.


We saw a bus parked at the bus stop on our 
way to the library.
We were excited to get here.
After our storytime we all chose our own books.
There was so many, it was difficult to choose.
The librarian scanned all our books, 
before we could take them out.
We waited patiently for our turn.
