Literacy Meets Science

 This week was J week... jelly starts with J.

And, we are also learning about change in science... so we made jelly and watched the jelly crystals change; dissolve and turn into jelly.

Literacy meets Art

Did you know that zebra stripes are a bit like finger prints - they are all different? 

Our art topic this term is print making. We made handprint zebras and a zoo for z week. Everyone made their own zebra and chose one other animal to make for our zoo. (We got a bit held up with the covid lockdown but our back wall has now been transformed.)

ART:  We have started making a template for our next print making project. We will make an original print based on our first initial. We have visited Room 16 and heard how they made their prints using a roller and special ink. We can't wait to try for ourselves!

Back to School and Back to Learning

It is so nice to be back to school together after 2 and a bit weeks in Covid lockdown.

We have combined the learning about 2 graphemes (letters) one from the weeks before we went into lockdown. 
Take a look at Elmer the Elephant and his wonderfully colourful quilt body. Our challenge was to use 3 colours and colour Elmer without any coloured square next to a square of the same colour. It was not as easy as it sounded.
