This week....

 

Maple and Oak classes have had lots of opportunities this week to use their senses. Monday, the children experimented with slime. The recipe didn't quite work out so we will save that for another time!

 

 

 In the canopy, children developed their fine motor skills, scooping the volcanic, firey foam into the containers.

Funky fingers - children were challenged to use the tweezers to pick up the sp-sp-spooky ghosts from the trays.

 Other activities included imaginative play in the catsle, the pirate ship and the fairy house.

 All the children are working really hard to improve their writitng skills - focusing on writing their name. This activity, which uses magnets, helps the children to practice using entry and exit strokes.

It's been a long first half term and I think all the children (and adults) are ready for a rest.We are so pleased with how well the children have settled in and have started to progress in their learning already. Enjoy the half term everybody. Rest, share a smile and have fun.
