The Odd Egg
This week the children came to school to find a golden egg in the classroom. They had to guess what was in the egg before reading the story 'The Odd Egg'. Later in the week, they learnt about which animals lay eggs through researching with non-fiction books. They loved drawing what they had found and then thought about what they would like to find out next. We also decided to make our own egg. Using papier mache and lots of PVA glue, the children worked collaboratively to make the egg throughout the week.
Maths
Continuing with our Mastering Number journey the children have been ordering numbers to 8, making staircase patterns and accurately counting out 8 objects. They loved using the Number blocks stamps to make their patterns.
Dentist Visit
As we have been enjoying Toothbrush Club for a few weeks we had a special visitor from the NHS to talk to us about the importance of brushing teeth. The children knew lots already but also learnt that snails have more teeth than crocodiles! Thank you Rachel for coming to visit us and provide all our Toothbrush Club resources.
