Picturebook Thursday

We love bringing teacher in our favourite picturebooks for teacher to read to us! Some of our favourite books include ‘The Tiger who came for Tea’, ‘The Pigeon doesn’t want to go to School’ and all of Julia Donaldson’s books!

Dancing Bones

Our new favourite transition activity: Dancing bones!

Our favourite books

We had so much fun in our Show and Tell this morning sharing our favourite books! We’ve noticed there are a lot of dinosaur lovers in our classroom!

Our Autumn Projects

Look at our fantastic Autumn projects with all the signs of Autumn we’ve learnt about and seen!

Fine Motor Stations

We love our fine motor stations and love the idea of changing our seats every few minutes.

We’ve learnt to stop and freeze when the time runs out and to silently and carefully walk from one table to another, being very sensible and aware of each other.

Percussion Instruments

There is always great excitement when the percussion instruments are played in Prefab 8. The boys really embraced the sounds and rhythm in our music lesson this week.

Morning Activities

In Prefab 8 our favourite time of the day is our morning activities. We love to improve our fine motor skills while having fun! Our new jigsaw puzzles have been a little tricky, so we have been lucky enough to work together as a team to get the job done.

September’s Artists of the Week

Congratulations to our Artists of the Week for the month of September Luca, Ollie and Eli.

Luca represented himself beautifully in his very own self portrait- fantastic work!

While we learned all about PopArt, Ollie produced such a lovely contrast with the primary colours that he used to paint his “handprint pop art”.

Eli’s interpretation of Kandinsky’s Concentric Circles with oil pastels is amazing, well done!

Picture books & Art

One thing we absolutely love in Room 4 is to read new picture books and create Art based on the characters in the books.

This week we enjoyed reading ‘The Dot’ and made our own mark based on the story! We also read ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’ and made our own caterpillars too! And guess what? We even cut the circles all by ourselves!

Teacher is super proud of us and our hard work!

Our Nature Walk

Today we went on a Nature Walk to observe the signs of Autumn we can spot in our local community. We were so excited to bring back leaves and conkers for our Nature Table.
