Spring is a great time for Planting!

In Spring we went for walks around our school.  We found blossoms on the trees and we also noticed that the days were getting warmer.  We challenged ourselves to name the different parts of a flower. To help us with our learning, we planted bean, tomato, lettuce and flower seeds.  We have to remember to water our seeds every day and make sure they get sun as well.  Our seeds took a long time to grow into seedlings.  We have yummy looking lettuce but no tomatoes, flowers or beans yet.  We also worked with our lovely mother helpers to make a Spring mural.  We shared our ideas about what happens in Spring.   We visited the sunflower garden and looked at the different parts of the flower and their names.  We hope you like our Spring display in our corridor!

FW: Harold Visits Sunnyhills School

We are learning to:

• Understand that we are special
• Understand that other people have the same needs as we do
• Keep ourselves safe when playing
• Explore the links between human and animal needs

Harold came to visit Sunnyhills this term.  Room12  went to the caravan two times.  We looked after the animal puppets and talked about how they need the same things as we do. We liked it when Harold came out of his room to talk about how unique and special we are.   Later we created self-portraits and talked about how we are all different and that is what makes us special!

T3 Buddy Reading Session

This term we are starting our Buddy Class sessions with our Room 8 buddies. 

 

Before we went, we learnt how to introduce ourselves and talk about what we like.  We had to make eye contact and use a clear speaking voice.  Miss S could  hear lots of different languages being spoken. It made her heart happy. 

 

Next we showed our buddies how we are learning to read.  We pointed to the words and used the pictures to give us clues.  Our buddies read a picture  book to us and we listened carefully. 

 

We are really looking forward to seeing our buddies again next week:  )
