Welcome back Turtle class! 🐢
Week 1
In gymnastics this week, we were rocking and rolling! The children experimented with different ways to rock. They rocked their bodies on different levels and in different shapes and thought about their strong muscles and pointy toes and fingers whist doing so! They then took their rocking into rolling and practised tucked rolls on their sides.
The children loved their history lesson this week. They uncovered some animal bones in our outside area! The children were mostly convinced that we had found ourselves a dinosaur! After our careful excavating, the children drew the animal that they thought they’d discovered. Many of them said they felt excited unearthing the bones!
We used charcoal to draw fossils in art this week. They children created some wonderful drawings using this difficult drawing material!
In computing, the children were very excited to learn that we would be using Beebots this half term. This week, the children had the opportunity to show me what they already know about these very cute bee robots 🐝. We talked about the buttons on the top and what the children thought they did. They then had the chance to test the buttons to see if they were correct!
In dance this week, we became soldiers. We marched to a steady beat and then created a 3-part class dance. It was fabulous! 🤩
