Maths Cafe and telling the time

The Tigers and the Rising 5s enjoyed more number fun this week during the maths cafe on Tuesday morning. After listening to the story of Spinderella we were set different challenges to work out how many football boots were needed for teams of different animals. We made excellent use of various resources to help us solve the problems including counters, cubes and dienes.

On Wednesday the Tigers were learning all about telling the time. We learnt about how many minutes are in an hour and how many hours are in a day. The children made their own clocks with moving hands, which needed super scissor control, and also rolled play dough to make hands for the laminated clock faces.

Sunny days and busy learners

What a busy week we had last week. The sun was shining which meant we wanted to spend lots and lots of lots of time outside. We explored the sand, rode our bikes and did crafts. Inside we have been busy creating scenery for a new performance - we have decided we'd like to act out 'The Pig's Knickers'. We have also been working hard with our phonics, lots of us have been writing independently and practicing our letter formation. Super work Tiger and Cubs!

Our New Class

The Tigers and Cubs have settled so well into their new classroom. We love playing together and are working really hard to keep things tidy! We have enjoyed spending lots of time outdoors and our new role play area is a big hit.

Christmas Craft Cafe

On Friday 30th November 2018 we held a Christmas Craft cafe where families were invited to join us to make crafts to be sold at the Christmas fair. The Tigers and Cubs made bauble sun catchers, stockings, bead wreaths and Christmas tree decorations. We all worked really hard and made lots of money for our fantastic school.
