We went for a walk around the local area yesterday. We looked at the different buildings and then talked about whether the buildings are the same or different to where we live.
Some of us have painted pictures of the buildings.
Tomorrow we are making models of houses and other buildings (Thursday).
What a lovely first day. The children came into school ready to start their learning. Some were nervous but soon settled. We have started to learn to use critique – I notice, I praise, I wonder. Everyone had school dinner and it was great to hear lots of pleases and thank yous. The highlight of the afternoon was playing with remote control cars. The children designed races for them and some discovered that if you kept going backwards you made a circle.
Lots of tired children at the end of the day, but lots of play and learning inside and outside with new friends being made.
“Street dance is cool!”F2 had the opportunity to work with Miss Kirsty today to learn about Street dance. Both classes performed a dance routine which incorporated several moves. Mrs Fiedor and Mrs Hill from the office came to watch, as did Mrs Ogle and Mrs Barras. They were very impressed and it made everyone happy.
We have been practicing for Sport’s day. The children are getting better at staying in their own lane as well as not holding the egg on the spoon! Another practice tomorrow and we should be ready for Monday.
The children continue to make new friends and are following new routines.
What an excellent start to F2. Children have started to make new friends and have played in the new areas of provision. They have also drawn pictures of themselves and have started to learn about critique using “I notice, I praise and I wonder”.
There were lots of happy faces in the dinner hall as morning nursery children had school dinner with their families. I think the parents enjoyed the chocolate concrete with custard the most!
