This week, we listened to another of Jill Murphy’s stories titled ‘Whatever Next!’
It’s about a little bear who went on an adventure to the moon. This story led to lots of conversations about space and rockets. In the story baby bear makes his own space rocket from a cardboard box. We decided to make our own rockets in the creative area using different shaped boxes and bottles. It was quite tricky working out how to attach the different parts together. But we didn’t give up.
‘I need some more sticky tape for my rocket bottle blaster!’ Archie
‘My rocket has got a shiny thing on to make it go fast.’ Frankie
Next week’s learning:
We are looking forward to reading ‘Stickman’ by Julia Donaldson in our story times next week.
In maths, we’re learning about length so will be using the words long, short, longer and shorter to compare different objects.
