And just like that it’s the end of another half term. A very good end indeed. With lots of interesting activities, thinking about wellbeing and staying healthy not just physically, but mentally too.
We were very excited to take part in the special Taskmaster education challenge week and every day we had to do the different activities. On a Monday we made THE BEST rainbow. We only had the prime colours and as an extra challenge had to think about how to make all of the colours:
Well…It is the best!
On Tuesday we designed a game and played a different version of Duck, duck goose and on Wednesday we had to go out and make a self-portraits only with things that we found on the playground. The portraits are absolutely brilliant and super creative!!!
Thursday was a super fun day as we choreographed a dance. We used the music from our previous PE lesson ‘He is a pirate’ from Pirates of the Caribbean. Please check your Tapestry account for a special surprise!
Friday was a design a hat day… Well we made some hats using junk modelling:
As this year’s theme was Let’s connect we connected with Nursery and had a special yoga session and then made stress balls.
Later that week we connected with the rest of the school by making a piece of a puzzle. We only used our fingertips to create the different shades.
Little Wandle
As already mentioned we are not going to learn any new sounds or tricky words, but instead we are concentrating on how to read longer words like FARMYARD or CARPARK.
So when we read those super long words we have to chunk them up first. For example
C-A-R car, P-AR-K park; CAR – PARK, CARPARK.
The rest of the week we spent on reading books about emotions, building cosy dens and spending quality time playing with our friends. It was a lovely week 🙂
Have a wonderful half term and a restful one too 🙂
