We have been enjoying the sunshine (when it appears!) in EYFS recently.
100% Attendance
Last Friday, we got to enjoy an extra 15 minutes of playtime as a reward for our 100% attendance the previous week. Well done everyone for getting yourselves to school. Let’s keep it up as we move into the last half term.
COJO fun!
We had lots of fun completing our COJO challenge this morning in Crew MW. We flew to the jungle and had to tip toe through the swamp without waking up the crocodiles! We balanced, climbed, jumped and crawled our way through the swamp, and we managed to do it without waking up any of the crocodiles! 🐊
Break time fun 🐺
Today we had a great time playing ‘What time is it Mr Wolf’, it was very competitive and we had a great time trying to catch other other. We also practised out skipping skills and practised ‘jumping in’. It was great fun!
Exploring a new resource…👀
Crew MW explored a mystery box this morning in outdoor provision…We began by predicting what might be in the box. Some of us thought there might be a giant teddy in there, or a pirate, or maybe even a unicorn! But what we found was some giant polydron pieces! We had lots of fun working together to build using the polydrons outside! We created a house and a tunnel with a trap door and we followed Miss Welburn’s instructions and positional language carefully to make the structures. We even worked out how to rotate the shapes around to make them fit together. The best part was pretending to be the Big Bad Wolf and the Three Little Pigs! We huffed, and we puffed, and we blew the house down! 🐷🐷🐷🐺
Active break times 🚶♀️🎶⚽️
In Crew Marsh the children have really embraced working in small groups during their break and lunchtimes. They have been working on lots of different skills, some new and some previously shown in PE lessons. This varies from dancing and balancing, to target throws and tennis games. It has been great to watch the children grow in confidence and now start to set up these activities themselves, showing great teamwork throughout. We always end our break time by joining one long line and doing the ‘conga’ to collect all of our equipment around the playground before heading back inside. I can’t wait to see what other exciting activities are coming up!
