There were 8 in the bed...


WOW! Last week Miss Lunn was SO impressed with this fantastic number work I saw in 'Get Busy' time...



                                 ...see if you can join in too. 

Taking numbers away can be a bit tricky - remember you could use your fingers to help you! 

I wonder what other counting songs we know. Why don't you comment below and tell us your ideas.

Hello lovely Reception!

This is RN's lovely Dinosaur display. You have all worked so hard and produced some AMAZING art work and some fantastic writing.
 
RN have been making some medicine for the dinosaurs! I really hope that they get better!

Dinosaur modelling

On Friday Miss Lunn set RL a challenge...could we work together to build a dinosaur? What would we need? What would it look like? 

RL did a fantastic job working together to create a head, neck and body. I can't wait to see how we finish it off on Monday!


But wait! When I came back to get my coat on Friday evening look what I found....


                             The dinosaur was eating the leaves from our Reading Garden! 

I wonder what kind of dinosaur it could be? I wonder what we could call it? If you have an idea why don't you comment below and tell us!

(Don't forget to bring your recycling into school and we can make even more of these fantastic models!)
