Karate

On Friday we were luck enough to have a karate session. It was such fun! We listened beautifully and learnt some really great new skills.

Marshmallow Madness

This week in Forest Schools, the Tigers cooked marshmallows on a campfire. Mrs Butcher even came and joined in the fun!

The behaviour by all children was excellent and it was so lovely to see and hear so many beautiful manners.

Forest Schools

On Tuesday afternoon the Tigers enjoyed some beautiful autumnal weather and had a great time outside at Forest School.  Some of us played in the mud kitchen, some of us helped Miss Wones to collect wood for the fire and some of us made magic wands out of sticks.  We finished off by playing one of our hide and seek games, '1, 2, 3, where are you?' 

Directions

This week in maths the Lions have been learning about patterns and direction. Today we took our learning outside which we were all super excited about! Our task was to use the correct vocabulary to direct our partner around an obstacle course. We used directions such as forwards, backwards and learnt which way was left and right. We also practiced our turns as we directed our partner to do a quarter, half or three-quarter turn. Some of us even learnt which way we needed to turn if we were turning clockwise and anticlockwise! Super work Lions!

Space

Our class topic this term is Space and Lions and Tigers have thoroughly enjoyed finding out lots about Space. This week we looked at Neil Armstrong and wrote down facts about him. During the afternoon some children spent some time building space shuttles of their own using the lego to fly into Space. We are currently changing our role play into a space rocket which the children are super excited for so keep your eyes on the blog to see the finished result!

3D Shape

This week the Tigers have been focusing on 3D shape. We have taken part in lots of hands on activities to help us learn the shape names and talk about their properties.
