This week our learning activities will be about,
Space!
The children will learn about space and be encouraged to comment and ask and answer questions about it. They will also learn about the occupation of an astronaut.
On Monday the children will watch the short video below as a simple introduction to Space.
Rocket patterning and drawings.

Throughout the week we will be making rocket models using different construction materials.
On Monday we used different art techniques to create a space themed background for our new display which will be appearing in the classroom soon.
Paint splats.
Collaging a planet earth.
On Wednesday we made space posters drawing and writing about all of the things which we have learnt about space.
We have enjoyed playing in our new Space Station role play area!
Maths Focus: -
This week the children will be learning to recognise and order numbers 1 to 5 / 1 to 10 / 10 and beyond. They will be making their own number rockets with numbered windows which they will sequence into the correct order.

Challenge Time!
In preparation for your child moving into their new reception class we will be setting the children individual challenges which will encourage them to persist at an activity and be proud of their achievements. Your child will be given a special sticker to indicate that they have completed a challenge at school, so please encourage them to share with you why they received one.
