Sequencing Toothbrushing

Last week we worked on developing our scissor skills. I was so proud at how many children could not only could make snips in paper, but could independently cut out their pictures. Once the pictures were cut out, we had to stick them in the right order, then use our mathematical language (first, then) to explain our sequence and events.

Pride Of Plover

This week our two pride of Plover winners are Thomas and Mesut! Both boys have really impressed us with their focus and determination, when practising scissor skills in class. Keep working hard!

Thomas is always a kind member of our crew, supporting his peers and having lovely manners.

Mesut has been working hard to improve his listening, and now is engaging much better in adult directed tasks.

Brushing Our Teeth

This week we have been looking at how we can keep our teeth healthy, by brushing them. We have learnt how to brush our teeth properly, and used disclosure tablets at home to see the plaque in our teeth, so we know where we still need to brush. We learnt a song to help remind us how/when to clean our teeth, it’s been great to see some children singing this independently during choosing time! I wonder if they can sing it for you at home.

Hand Washing

This week as part of our expedition, we are looking at what we can do to keep our bodies healthy. Today we focussed on learning to wash our hands properly, to stop germs getting into our tummies. We used glitter to represent the germs and noticed that it we just put our hands in the water, the glitter did not come off. We then used soap to wash our hands and the glitter all came off. We spoke about how you need to wash between your fingers and your wrists too.

Back to school!

It’s been lovely to see everyone back in F1 this week, and how nicely our early starters have slotted in, making lots of new friends. We’ve had lots of fun exploring the snow, role play and working on our fine/gross motor skills.
