Week ending 14.11.14

This week we have been artists. We have looked at self portraits. The children looked carefully at their features. They worked with a friend to see what was the same and what was different about their faces. We have worked on painting and drawing skills. The children chalked the outline of their faces and the details on their face. They chose the colours they though were most similar to their features and painted these on. The children's self portraits will be displayed in class and when they are ready you are more than welcome to pop into the class to see them.
We have been continuing with squiggle to develop letter formation skills. We have also been developing listening, concentration and rhyming skills.
In maths we have been working in number recognition. We have looked at the numbers 1 - 10. The children have been using these to label sets of objects. They have also been counting out the correct amounts to put on matching number cards.
We have also started learning the songs for our nativity play.
