Our Spring 1 Learning Journey
Fabulous Friday we focus our learning on mathematical development - we began the day with number rhymes and active maths whereby we roll a dice count the spots and perform something physical to match the amount ( some children are beginning to subatise 😉) The compare bears were popular as the children explored different ways of sorting them by colour or size. Counting them into the pots.
On Thursdays we focus on Physical Development both Gross motor and Fine motor skills. Look at some of our learning whereby we enjoyed acting out the story of the “ Bear Hunt” in the hall., we did cosmic Yoga in the afternoon again linked to the focus book. To develop our manipulative skills we used pegs to pick up pom poms to hide in the boxes, we used thin fine paintbrushes to paint features our faces. Also threading small beads to make a necklace and drawing our family using the felt tip pens. To strengthen our muscles in our hands we explored the play dough whereby we were rolling , squeezing,,pinching and using cutters.
The children learnt about “ The Epiphany “ as we returned after the Christmas holiday. Some of them dressed up as the kings from the “ Nativity “ story” and all children could recall when baby Jesus was born and could remember the characters from the story. Some children could even remember the three gifts that the Kings bought for Baby Jesus
