This week, the children have been learning how to give each other directions, before moving on to programming a toy to move left, right, forwards and backwards as well as making half and quarter turns. One child taught her friends that two quarter turns make a half turn!
This work on position and fractions continued on Friday, when the children made a honey sandwich for their teddy and divided it into halves and quarters.
Thank you very much for the donations that came in as part of our Teddy Bear’s Picnic that celebrated the end of our topic on Toys. The children have certainly learned a great deal about old toys and have enjoyed talking about the family toys that they brought in.
