This week's focus will be the story of ......
"The Crunching Munching Caterpillar"
Literacy Focus: - The children will be identifying and discussing main characters and events from the story. They will also be writing about the story during focus writing tasks.
The children will learn about the life cycle of a butterfly and will be encouraged to sequence and describe each stage of the life cycle.
Maths Focus: - This week we will revisit shape and we will encourage the children to identify and name common 2D and 3D shapes and use mathematical terms to describe them.
This week in Caterpillar Class:-
Linked to, "The Crunching Munching Caterpillar" story we have been busy making butterflies (which we also use for our class assembly)
We carefully patterned butterflies at the Writing Area Table.
On Friday CRIBs told us the story of, "The Prodigal Son" and we learnt why we should say sorry for things which we have done which are wrong.
This week we sorted and named 3D shapes.
A square based pyramid and triangle based pyramid.
We enjoyed using construction materials to make 3D shapes.

This week in Ladybird Class:
The children have been very busy, preparing for our first class
assembly, this week.
Vivienne has been supporting us with learning new songs throughout
the week – here the children have made her into Queen Vivienne by making her a
crown, chains and a special bracelet.
Thank you Vivienne; for getting us singing together!
We are enjoying being in the big playground and have written
about it.
We have continued to practice our Sports Day skills.
Great balancking Kamil.
We even had a go at ‘hat on’ and ‘pick up the bucket’ race –
tricky, but we managed it.
We worked on 2D (flat) shape names and their features and 3D
(fat) shape names. We sorted the shapes
into 2D and 3D
Lovely 2D and 3D model.
Good sorting of objects.
Charlie W is sorting 3D shapes.
Lila sorted the 3D shapes to match the word mat and then
took a picture of it using the ipad.
Chloe W has taken a picture of her friend taking a picture
of someone using an ipad – ‘Look your picture is on my ipad – ha ha.’
We are thinking about our upcoming beach trip and dressing
up in the role-play area.
Wow Albie! I wonder what you can see under water?
Emily and Albie are making a butterfly symmetry
picture.

Thank you to all the adults who came to support the children in their first every class assembly.
The children all had a great time performing it and I am very proud of all they have achieved.
Growing UP!
