    Space Center

    Posted by Mrs L Jesters
    Our role play has been made in to its very own space center where the children can book rocket trip tickets to see space or to have a coffee/tea and cake under the planets. They have been encouraged to use technology such as a keyboard, screen and a phone to book their trips.

    Posted by Mrs L Jesters
    Today the children used tin foil to make the patterns on the moon. They then cut out an astronaut with some adult support to stick on. The children were asked questions such as what would the moon be like? What might an astronaut take to the moon? and etc

    Our role play area has been turned into Stick Mans house. However Stickman is nowhere to be seen, the children have been looking through the story to see what clues there are for where abouts he has been!

    LJ'S campsite

    Posted by Mrs L Jesters
    Today the children built their own campsite and pretended they were camping in the woods. They used logs and seats, a fire and cotton balls for marshmallows. We then decided to extend this and build another campsite in our outdoor area. This time we used a real tent and crates for chairs.

    Woodland Animals

    Posted by Mrs L Jesters
    We have been thinking of what 'Small' animals we might find in the woods. Today for our tuff tray we set up a bug hunt. The children used a magnifying glass and a pair of tweezers to collect as many bugs as they could find. We learnt the names of lots of bugs today!

    Fireworks

    Posted by Mrs L Jesters
    Some of the children have been sharing their experiences of watching fireworks this weekend. They told us the colours that they saw and what noises they made. SO today we set up a glitter tuff tray for them to have a go at creating firework patterns using a chopstick and a painting activity where they used sliced kitchen roll to make firework prints before sprinkling them with glitter.
