Ourselves

This week we have learning about different body parts through singing songs like Tommy Thumb, If You're happy and You Know It and Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes.
We have read This is Our House by Michael Rosen and thought about how we look the same and how we look different. We have also talked about how we can be good friends by sharing and taking turns.
We made paper people thinking about what features they had.

We have been exploring different textures by feeling a variety of objects such as cottonwool, foam, sand paper, coral, shells and furry material. We talked about how they feel and used some great describing words.

"prickly"  "tickly"   "rough" " soft" " smooth"

We have been singing number rhymes including 5 little monkeys, 5 little Ducks and 5 Little Speckled Frogs. We have been counting objects 1:1 and matching numbers to the amounts we have counted.


We have had a visit from Ben who helps us learn P.E. skills. This week he taught us how to dribble our footballs and keep them still. We had lots of fun!!


Here are some of the other things we have been getting up to.
 

 

  
 

Next week we are continuing to explore our themes of Shape and Ourselves.
