Warmer days and warmth on Valentine's Day.

This week was a busy week for inquiry with our dance practise for the YEP starting. The children have practised the first 30 seconds of the song and are getting better at the actions. After painting their beautiful swirly paintings last Friday, we looked at them together and told our table partners one thing we liked about their painting. For example, "it was so colourful" and "I liked the shapes." We read a nice story about a girl who was curious, but as she got older she lost her imagination and curiosity. The book is called "Heart in a bottle" by Oliver Jeffers. 


In phonics, we practised our sight words with the fishing game and by building words from cards with starting and ending sounds, such as /sh/ and /ip/. The new sight words this week were: at and day. We revised got.

In math, we did counting up to 100 and down from 100-0 as well as designing and making our own 3D shapes. The children are learning that 2D and 3D shapes are different because 2D shapes are flat, whereas 3 D shapes are not.
