We had lots of fun bringing the story alive by going on a real bear hunt today! We were really excited when we found our class bears hiding inside the cave.
We have been learning all about Christmas Trees in Foundation over the last week.
It was exciting to have the trees that we chopped down at Rushmere Country Park delivered to school. We designed our own decorations and had a grand switch on of the Christmas lights.
“5…4…3…2…1…switch on!”
We have also been celebrating Christmas with our own Christmas dinner! It was so fun!
An elf came to visit Foundation and has been causing mayhem!!
We have all been eager to find out where Holly the elf was hiding each day and what mischief she was up to…
We have been writing a diary of everything that she has been up to. Can you write about her adventures at home?
Here are a few things that she has been up to…
When we read Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book we wanted to find out which book was our favourite book so we made a chart to find out.
Which book did we like the most? How do you know?
Which book did we like the least? How do you know?
In Foundation we have been looking at the changes in our environment as the seasons change. To help us remember, we have been making our own pictures of the seasons and we have been matching the months of the year to the different seasons. Which season is your birthday in?
What happens to the trees as the seasons change? What happens to the animals as the seasons change? What happens to the weather as the seasons change? What happens to day and night as the seasons change?
Why do you think these changes happen?
We went on our trip to Rushmere Country Park to watch our Christmas tree being chopped down and ignite our learning for tree week.
It was a great day where we learnt about different changes in nature such as; the lifecycle of a butterfly, the different seasons and changing trees.
The children were brilliantly behaved and listened well to our ranger and really enjoyed listening to ‘The Littlest Christmas Tree’.
