Friday 9 December 2022 Blackbirds 9th December We have had a great week this week decorating our classroom, making Christmas cards and gifts and practicing our Nativity. We have been looking at different versions of the story of Cinderella and comparing what is different and the same. We have continued our measuring in maths and have been using cubes to measure different size magic wands (that we think belong to the Fairy Godmother).

Friday 11 March 2022 Blackbirds 11th March This week it has really started to feel that spring is on the way. We were introduced to our new book Tiny Seed by Eric Carle and we have also been looking at different versions of Jack and the Beanstalk. On Monday we planted sunflowers, beans and peas and made some signs to ensure nobody would touch them! We used pastels and worked in a group of 5 to each draw a page from the story, which depicted what had happened to the seeds along their journey. Finally writing about what had happened.
