Week 2 Term 2

There was great excitement on Monday morning when a large digger came to dig a very large hole. The work continued throughout the week and was closely monitored by lots of us.


Our poem for last week was all about Autumn leaves, but unfortunately due to the wet weather we had to postpone some fun leaf play until week 3..watch out for the photos in next week's blog.

In our reading rotations this week we have been learning about digraphs by using the interactive whiteboard and learning the tricky word 'was' using the slightly lower tech play dough.

 During fundamental skills last week Britney was our photographer, here are a few of her action shots.



 On Friday we had our first visit from Constable John as part of the Keeping Ourselves Safe focus. He taught us all about good touch, touch that hurts and confusing touch. He will be running 2 more sessions with us next week.

 We finished off the week with a quiet library session with our friends........
