We love the Queen of Hearts!

This week we have been very busy preparing for our sharing assembly this Friday.


We have been practising reciting The Queen of Hearts, and we talked about what happened first in the story and what happened next.


We have been exploring lots of activities based around Humpty Dumpty: we have tried to build walls for Humpty Dumpty, and some of us talked about how we could make the wall more secure.


We have drawn and painted pictures of characters sitting on the wall, this has developed our skill of drawing shapes to represent objects. We have also used the technique of sponge printing to create our own walls.






In Maths we have been looking at the total number of objects, and how the total remains the same when we separate the group of objects in different ways.


We have been preparing for World Book Day by reading a range of traditional tales. We have retold the story of Goldilocks and The Three Bears using puppets and we have been learning The Three Bears Rap.




 















In Butterflies we talked about our favourite characters in books:


Ethan: "My favourite is Peter Pan."
Lacey: "I like the Big Bad Wolf from 3 Little Pigs".
James: "The Tiger, from the Tiger Who Came To Tea. I'm dressing up as him."


In groups, we chose a character and gave clues to the rest of the class to guess who we were thinking of.


We are really excited about dressing up as our favourite characters on Friday, and we are looking forward to seeing you at our sharing assembly.
