Week 2 - Sun and Moon
Creating our DT designs... ROCKETS!
Lots of different 2D shape activities
Look at our alien creations ! What planet could they be from ?
Exploring ice from the freezing winter weather!
The children explored their ‘Winter’ learning through ice exploration. We discussed the freezing and melting process of the natural elements, and explored scientific vocabulary.
Children played the bean bag, rocket game!
The children practised precision throwing, using under arm techniques. They then read a mixture of cvc, cvcc and red high frequency words.
2D shapes
The children embedded their 2D shape knowledge outdoors. They used them to chalk pictures onto the playground floor, focusing on properties of the shapes for the images. Children also ‘dug’ for shapes in the construction pebbles.
Maths outdoors
Children continued to work on our ‘part,part,whole’ methods for composition of number. They also used our ten frames for counting out amounts. They used the abstract digit cards as well to identify formal numbers.
Obstacle course time !
Children used their gross motor skills to have a go at our outer space, obstacle course.
Mark making ideas... look what we have done !
Building rockets and moon buggies for our outer space learning.
