we continue our preparations for christmas

Last week the children made some beautiful crowns to decorate a Christmas tree, which is on display at the Christmas tree festival at St George's church Fordington. If you didn't manage to go to the festival, we took some pictures, which we will put up soon. The children were also busy making christmas cards and bird food to decorate a tree outside for the birds.
We were also learning about the nativity and the story of Christmas, do fill in a WOW if your child tells you about the Christmas story at home.

This coming week we continue to learn about shapes and our next steps will be in ICT making Christmas trees and photographing them, then then using the computer to turn the photo's into labels for our Christmas cakes which ALL the children will have the opportunity to make.

Our Letters and sounds will be Aspect 2 Instrumental sounds. We will be listening to Christmas songs and music and talking about the instruments we can hear. We will also be continuing on with listening games, using the poem 'what's inside?' by Celia Warren to play a sounds game.

At home if you listen to music why not try and recognise the instruments!
