Mini-me Nativity
Our Small Construction Area has been invaded by Mini-Me Nativity characters. We enjoyed being all the different characters and dressing up in our Nativity costumes so much that Mrs Barker turned us into little mini figures.
We have been using our mini-figures in the building area to re-create…
We've been making glasses
Today we started off making snowflakes to decorate our classroom but this activity soon changed into making glasses instead. One of the snowflakes looked like a superhero mask and the next thing I know we've got a room full of children wearing their very own handmade glasses. This is why I love…
Our First Nativity
Look at our amazing Nativity cast in their first ever Nativity. I am so proud of all the children who worked so hard and were fantastic characters in our play.
Christmas Pictures with Lego
We have been busy today making Christmas pictures with lego bricks. We had to look really carefully at the picture to see which pieces we needed and where to put them. We worked sensibly together and helped each other create the Snowman and Christmas Tree pictures.
Buddy the Elf is back
Oh dear!!!!! It's that time of year again when the Naughty Elf comes to visit and he has already been up to so much mischief.

Finding Numbers in Maths
