Wow, what a busy week we have had so far. We have started learning our new story to retell; The Three Little Pigs and have made a class story map of the story (Mrs Saeed was surprised at how wolf like her first wolf picture looked but then on the second attempt it turned into a duck which had the whole class in stitches!).
We have all drawn pictures of the story in our writing books and have tried labelling our pictures. Some of us have made collages of houses using card, buttons, gummed paper, feathers, pipecleaners, tissue paper and anything else we could find – we have had a tree house, a haunted house and a bridge house so far.
Today we acted out the story – there are some very talented young wolf actors in our class – bearing teeth and sharp claws, slinking up to the pigs’ houses.
In letters and sounds we are now learning how to write our letters correctly using whiteboards and marker pens. Everyone is trying really hard and Mrs Saeed has been very impressed with how well everyone is doing.
In maths we have been counting backwards and have learnt a new counting back from 10 song. Ask your child to sing it to you!
