This week our focus book has been Seaside Poems.
We have really enjoyed looking at the rhyming words and reading the different poems. We also talked about and compared two environments, a city (Leeds) and the seaside. The children did a great job talking through their ideas.
“A city has lots of tall buildings. At the seaside you see boats.”
“I can see lots of people in the city. I can see lots of sand at the seaside.”
Our world of the week this week was City the children have really enjoyed using this during their learning.
“I have been to a city called Leeds, it is bigger than Wetherby.”
“London is a really big city. I have been there.”
Poetry Picnic
This week our poem was I Have A Little Frog
I have a little frog,
His name is Tiny Tim,
I put him in the bathtub,
To see if he could swim.
He drank up all the water,
And gobbled all the soap.
And when he tried to talk,
There were bubbles in his throat.
The classroom Challenges this week have been
- to sort the images of the seaside (coast) and the city.
- to write an I can see sentence about what you can see in the seaside picture.
- to pick two animals and add the amount of feet they have together.
- to find the tricky words hidden in the outdoor area.
- to use the loom bands to make a shape in the board.
Next week our Focus book is Sharing a Shell
