We have been making our own small worlds during continuous provision. We thought carefully about which animals could share a pen in our zoo.

This week we have been looking at our 2D shapes, we then used our cutting and sticking skills and made our own shape dinosaurs. Whilst making these we were talking about the shapes we chose to use. 

Today nurse Elle visited us. She spoke about hot to have healthy bodies and healthy minds. We also learnt how to use plasters, bandages and other equipment. 

Yesterday we had a Doctor visit us in Reception. He showed us lots of different equipment, how to use some of them and what they are used for. We even got to listen to each others heart beats. 

Yesterday we had a street dance session. We learnt how to do a cool walk, poses and the flip roll. We had lots of fun learning these new skills.

We wrote letters to Supertato asking for his help. We arrived into our classroom and found Evil Pea frozen in ice balloons. We then had a discussion about how he froze him and we need to make sure we don’t let the ice get warm or it will melt. 

We walked into our classroom this morning to find it had been destroyed. There was a letter and a picture with Evil Pea sat on our carpet spots, we couldn’t believe it. Today we made some posters to describe him so everyone knew and we also set some traps to help us try and catch him. 

This half term we are finding out about heroes in the community and superheroes in stories. The children are enjoying pretending to be firefighters.

We have been looking at how to keep safe indoors and outdoors. We got ourselves into character, Super safety heroes. We went to see if we could see anything unsafe or anything we need to do to do when outside to keep ourselves and everyone else safe. You should never run by a road, don’t climb…

Today, we met up with our buddies and gave them a gift we had made and a Christmas card. We played together and then watch the pantomime ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’. What a lovely morning it was! 
 

We have been looking at the four seasons and been exploring the changes in our environment during each season. We have linked our calendars and made 4 trees based on each season. 

This week we have been looking at toys, We 5en used our creative skills to make our own toys. We had a think about what toy we would like to make and what materials we would need to be able to make these. Then we used lots of different skills to make them.
