A Parade of Vehicles

This week the children have begun their new Topic 'From A to B'. We have shared photos and talked about different forms of transport the children have used.

All of the children completed their homework project, which involved them making a vehicle that they could wear. And what great results we had: trains, planes, cars, a tuk-tuk and a tank!
















The children enjoyed listening to one another talk about their vehicles. They asked questions such as: Who made it? Why did you choose to make it? What did you use to make it?

Some children challenged themselves by finding 2 more/less and 5 more/less. In English we have been reading and retelling the story 'The Elves and the Shoemaker'  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qniiw8y4H3A . The children have used vocabulary from the story to order pictures of the events. As part of our topic 'The Magic Toymaker' we have looked at playground games that adults would have played when they were children. We learnt how to play the game hopscotch, drawing out the grids using chalk. We used stones as counters. We learnt the actions 'hop' and 'jump'. Practicing hopping and jumping.
