​Summary for Week Ending20th May 2022

20/5/2022

 
Hi everyone!
This week the lovely weather is back so we’ve been spending lots of time out on the path, in the garden and going for walks.
This week we are learning about how plants grow. We have talked about the things they need to grow like soil, water and sunshine.
We've looked at the different parts of the plants.
We are starting to plant some runner beans! We can't wait to see how they sprout and grow. At summer, we will take them home and carry on growing them in our gardens!
(For our friends on holiday, don't worry, we have started a bean for you to water when you get back!)
 
We have been looking at the different things we can make from shapes. For example, if we put a triangle on a square it looks like a house with a roof! One child noticed that 3 triangles arranged in the right way looked like half a hexagon!

For our mark making we have been using the paintbrushes in water outside. We can make all sorts of pictures and watch them vanish again as the water dries!

On Wednesday we did some amazing team work to put together some tricky floor puzzles. We kept going back for more and were so excited when we had a new one completed to show our friends.
 
On Thursday we build some amazing enclosures with the duplo. Lots of children did this and by the time it was tidy up time we had made a village on the carpet!

On Friday we played with the cars and garage, watching them zoom off the garage and land at the bottom.
 
For snacks this week we have been enjoying hot cross bun, strawberries, yogurt and cream cheese and breadsticks.

One more week until half term!
Amber and Paula 😊
