This week we have been continuing our learning around Easter and Spring time. We have been learning about the Easter story and we visited the local church for an Easter service. We really enjoyed our first outing as a class... although we did get quite wet! Thank you to all of the parents/carers who attended. 

The children have been making and writing Easter cards, creating pictures using different materials such as oil pastels and they have been writing factual captions about Spring. 

We have been continuing our learning with addition - the children have been playing 'lucky dip' with Easter egg numbers and then using addition and concrete resources to solve problems. 

In phonics, we have been revisiting the sounds we have learnt, including reading compound words such as rooftop, carpark and popcorn. 

We have been continuing to learn about spring. The children have created nests for animals, made spring potions and have been describing their immediate environments as we change season. 

I wish everyone a fun and restful Easter holidays and I can't wait to hear what the children have been up to when we come back to school for the Summer term.
