This week in writing we have been looking at adding describing words to our sentences . We also did some sentence builders and the children noticed that Ms Haddock had missed a full stop at the end of the sentence so they had to add it on. Ralphie got the post card this week for working hard and getting smart. Well done!
we are working really hard on our writing
In today’s handwriting lesson we looked at ‘the misfits’. I was blown away with how the children showed great listening skills during the input and then showcased their beautiful work by producing this handwriting. They all worked extremely hard and this really does show! Great work Crew Ramsey keep it up 🙂
Yesterday and today we have been looking at describing who and doing. They children diod really well with this and they showed me that they are working hard.
So today in writing we had to see if we could hold a sentence by remembering what the sentences said the day before. This is how we did
Today in writing they copied the sentence making sure they used a capital letter at the beginning of the sentence followed by a full stop at the end of the sentence. We made sure that we had finger spaces in between our words. In activate (do now ) we checked that we knew what who?, doing? and where? .We made sure by completing a task first before our writing.
In writing today the children looked at what where is. Over the past 3 days the children have looked at who?, doing? and where?
In writing today they looked at the doing word . They found out that this is a action word .
In writing the children began to look at simple sentences. They looked at what who? was using our colourful semantics.
Over the past few days, the children have thoroughly enjoyed exploring maths through our outdoor provision. Using our “fast maths eyes,” we have been identifying and talking about shapes we can see in the environment, developing our early numberical skills and deepening our understanding of shape in meaningful, real-life contexts.
The children have also been busy creating simple two-part repeating patterns using natural resources such as sticks, leaves, twigs and stones. This hands-on exploration supports the Mathematics area of learning, particularly by recognizing, continuing, and creating patterns, while also encouraging problem-solving, critical thinking and collaboration.
Crew Frost have also been given opportunities to write numbers using chalk and other outdoor materials which has strengthened fine motor control and pencil grip. As the children formed numbers, we used fun phrases such as “around the tree, around the tree, that’s the way we make a three” to reinforce correct formation in an engaging and memorable way.
These experiences offer rich, practical, and play-based opportunities for Crew Frost to build strong foundations in number, shape, and pattern through active exploration.
Well done, Crew Frost — amazing mathematical thinking.
