ADVENT week 1

Advent is a time for waiting in hope for Jesus to come into our lives. There are 4 weeks in the season of Advent.

We use an Advent wreathe with 4 candles to help us countdown to Christmas.

 

During the week we made our own wreathes.  We reflected with  The candle burning Song. The first candle  is one of Hope.

 

 

These are the beautiful Wreathes the children made.

Checking in

Dear families

Just checking in  and hoping this blog finds you all safe and well.

 

Now that we have had a few days to  adjust, we want to reassure those whose children were at school on Monday that we did our very best with washing our hands at times during the day and then sanitising in between.  We have followed this practice all year.

Claudia and I will be phoning families  over the next 2 days checking in  and then posting some learning on Monday.

At this stage as far as learning is concerned, we would encourage you to spend time as a family.

 

Please don’t hesitate to get in contact at any time over the next period via email and we will do our best to answer any questions or concerns you might have as quickly as possible.

Learn with Bricks

Today Ben from Learn with Bricks came to school and worked with our classes.

We used lego to build a snail and fan. Using a  tablet to help us with coding we were able to make them move.

Making Diorama’s

Today  we started  our Living Things  Dioramas.  We all chose an animal we are experts  about.

We firstly wrote and information text and now are making its habitat.

Keep your eye on this post for further developments!

 

 

 

O’clock time

 

Today we continued our learning about time.

We have been learning about analog time. We have also named the parts of the clock- the face and the hour and minute hands.

Today we had a go at making our own clocks.

Please share our learning.

Included are the learning clips that help us learn o’clock times.
