Hello everyone,
We hope you have all had a fabulous windy sunny weekend.
We have continued to enjoys lots of seaside stories along with some starting school stories to support transition. On Monday we had a fabulous time at the beach. We went to the beach on the coach. When we were at the beach we had great fun throwing pebbles into the sea, making pictures using objects we found, building sandcastles, collecting objects, playing in the stream and building dams. We also enjoyed eating our snack on the beach. On Tuesday we had PE with Mr Treble and we practiced lots of Sports Day team games including the egg and spoon race, sack race, relay race and running race. On Wednesday and Friday afternoon some children who are going to POW in September went over to Reception to have an explore and listen to a virtual story with Mrs Evans. Throughout the week we have been creating some sea creatures out of salt dough. We have also been doing some bubble paitning and next week we will be creating underwater pictures out of our paintings. We have been mark making some of our sounds in the sand. We have made mermaids out of playdough, seashells and gems, We have been decorating the patterns with shells which develop our fine motor skills. We have all really enjoyed the small world camper van and tent and making up stories using them. Throughout the week we have created fish using bubble wrap painting, collaging ice creams and creating star fish.
