Today in 1 Red we had our first music lesson. We looked at various musical instruments and played each one to see what sound they each made. Today’s lesson was focused on pitch and tone where the children were given an instruction and they had to follow them using the instrument. We then sang some familiar songs and played the instruments. Great fun was had by all.
What a fabulous afternoon Reception had! Thank you to all the adults who came to support our stay and play! The children were so excited to show everyone around and it was lovely to see them proudly showing off! ❤️⭐️❤️
As part of our Learning Means The World Theme, ‘Powhatten People’, we found out that Pochahontas attended a masquerade ball and had to learn how to dance. This was very different from the customs she was used to in her tribe. We made our own masquerade masks and learned how to do a dance typical for that era.
A great week in Reception. We are using Rainbow Fish for our English jobs. There has been so much creativity and writing linked to this fabulous story! Reception showing off their talents as always ❤️
Another busy week in Reception. We are showing off our independent writing, maths skills, creativity and simply how amazing we are ❤️⭐️❤️⭐️❤️
Another very busy and amazing week in Reception. We had a visit from Mr O who was showing us some instruments, using rhythm and music. The creativity is fabulous! Amazing team work and lots of imagination. We have been using our maths skills in lots of our planning time and the independent writing has blown us away. The sunny weather is definitely helping as we can be outside working together ❤️⭐️
In LMTW ‘Light up the World’ we have been focusing on different sounds we can hear in our natural environment. The children had to listen to the different sounds then act them out using different body parts for their friends to guess them. The children in turn guessed what each sound was then together made class actions for each sound.
What a busy time we have had in Reception. Some amazing creations, writing and maths using our first, then, now language. Great collaborations, exploring and fun in the sun ❤️
Today 1 Red had their first music lesson with Mr O. It was all about listening and following instructions to play games and copy the rhythm and beat and work as a team. The children were split into 2 teams and had to work extremally hard together by communicating using their bodies and voices to enable them to beat each other and working effectively and quickly. A great time was had by all and we can’t wait for our next session.
Today in our geography lesson, we looked at the 7 continents and the 5 oceans. We learned two songs to help us remember all of the continents and oceans. We then were able to identify where the continents are on the map and as a challenge, we located the oceans. If you ask us, we will be able to sing you our songs!
