ShipShape in the Early Years!

In Early Years we have been exploring 2D and 3D shapes.

We have been busy making models and pictures, going on treasure hunts and playing games with shapes to help us learn their names and how to describe them. We have been using vocabulary such as edges, sides, faces and corners.

Finding shapes in the environment


 

 In Reception we have been reading Brown Bear by Eric Carle. We were thinking of the colours of the different animals and made up our own animals to add to the story. We retold the story using masks and instruments.





We explored mixing paints to make new colours.

Next week we will be looking at how we are the same as our friends and how we are different.
