  The Gruffalo

  Posted by Mrs L Jesters

  This week we are reading the Gruffalo by Julia Donaldson. After reading the story we made our own 'Terrible Creature' Using different coloured pencils. We thought about our creatures features and what makes them different. We used the colours to make our Creature stand out! Some of us made our own version of the Gruffalo.

  The Colour Monster's Visit

  Posted by Mrs L Jesters

  Today we were welcomed in by a Coloured box! At circle time the children had a visit from the colour Monster himself! Inside his box was his lunch and some activities for the children to enjoy. One of his activities were to create a 'Sock Monster' using the socks he brought us, he also brought us a packet of skittles to use as a rainbow experiment. We had lots of fun taking part in these activities and used our puppets when playing!

  How am i feeling?

  Posted by Mrs L Jesters

  We have been talking about our feelings, what makes us happy, sad, afraid, angry and calm just like the Colour Monster. We used the colours to describe how we felt today. We decided to create a big colour monster to keep in Little Jesters to represent our feelings and to help us talk about them. We used different coloured tissue paper to make them bright and colourful!

  Challenge Time

  Posted by Mrs L Jesters

  Today our tuff tray challenge was to use different materials to create a bridge, with chalk we created a river that our bridge had to go over. We then had to think of our own ideas of what would make a good bridge, it had to be strong, stand tall and creative. We used wooden blocks of all sizes, sticks and lollipop sticks to build and balance our bridges. Some of us worked alone and independently and others worked together in small teams.
