Honeybees Friday 17th May

We have had a brilliant week in Honeybees Class learning all about the lifecycle of a butterfly. We kick started the week with our focus book, 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar.' The children made caterpillars and butterflies using a range of medias, watched the life cycle of a butterfly and learnt that the butterfly starts its life as an egg, it grows into a large caterpillar, forms a chrysalis and then transforms into a butterfly. The children were fantastic at ordering the story and remembering all of the food the hungry caterpillar ate. They were very excited to hear that we will have our very own caterpillars to take care of next week, that they will watch a real life cycle of a butterfly over the next month. Watch this space!

In math's this week we have been learning to compare totals using the language more and less. They enjoyed playing games involving looking at and counting totals and then comparing. They became very confident in using the language of more and less. Well done Honeybees.

In our bucket sessions we have focused on animals this week. The children have been mesmerized watching fish swim in foamy blue water and animals created with different balloons. The children's engagement has been fantastic.

Have a wonderful weekend everybody.
