This week Kangaroo Class have been learning:

English

• We began to look at the story ‘The Jolly Postman’ by Janet and Allan Ahlberg.
• We ordered the events of the story and discussed the different fairy tales.
• We designed our own cottages and labelled them with our imaginative ideas of how to decorate them!
• We wrote shopping lists to describe what we would need.

Maths

• We looked at positional and directional language.
• We practised making whole, half and quarter turns by playing ‘Simon Says’.
• We described the position of different objects in relation to others.
• We used ordinal numbers to order people and numbers.

Topic

• We practised and sang songs based on ‘The Jolly Postman’ with Ms Caperon.
• We created sequences of movement by performing a variety of jumps.
• We decorated biscuits based on the cottage in ‘Hansel and Gretel’

Well done on a fantastic first full week in Year One; well done!
