Team 1 wb 14.9.20

Date: 18th Sep 2020 @ 4:43pm

This week team 1 have been learning how to communicate using Makaton to say ‘good morning’ and ‘good afternoon’. We talked about how Makaton can be used by children who need some help expressing themselves. I wonder if the children can show you their new Makaton signs at home? 

We have been practising our handwriting and using ‘funky fingers’ resources to strengthen our hands ready to write. We even wrote secret notes to each other to spread some gratitude and positivity. 

We have been counting the number of blocks used to build some more wonderful models in our construction area, and using shape language to describe our creations. 

In PE this week we began our unit of outdoor and adventurous activities. The children loved playing some games in the playground designed to get them exploring and asking questions. 

Drop Everything And Read (DEAR) time was spent enjoying a book as a class in the woodland before reading to each other. Reading also featured in Mouse Mania this afternoon as the children chose to read stories in the dark and have a few sweeties! Well deserved, Team 1! 

Thank you for a super week, Team 1, see you on Monday! 

Mrs Weeks and Miss Thomas.
