Super Skipping!

It has been another busy but AMAZING week in Giraffe Class. We have been so busy and the children are going from strength to strength.

Drawing Club this week has seen us watch an old favourite ‘Mr Benn’. He has been visiting the Zoo and we have been writing codes to help him with the animals.

Maths has seen us continuing with our numbers and problem solving up to 20. The children have been writing them correctly, making number lines and ordering them from smallest to largest. They are identifying them out of context and able to find one more and one less.

We have finished off our Science looking at habitats and why animals live in such places. The children had to show what they knew through pictures and conversations. It was amazing everything they have remembered! The children will be bringing a new knowledge organiser home in the next few days ready to start our new art topic.

PE has been great fun and we have been using the long skipping rope to keep a rhythm to jump. There are some great action shots! The children were reminded that skipping is a hard skill and they have had to practise a lot! This is a skill we hope that all of Giraffe class will be able to master by the end of the year.

Just a reminder that we visit Stourhead on Thursday 9th October, all of the details can be found on ParentPay. The children will need weather appropriate clothing and a small bag to carry lunch. We will leave in school time and return before the end of the day.

A shout out for helpers

We will be attending All Saints Church, Westbury for our annual Harvest Service on Thursday 16th October.  If you are able to walk with us as a helper please let myself or one of the Giraffe class adults know.  We will be leaving school at 1.30pm and be back by 3pm.   Helpers will need to be able to walk there and back with us.  For those joining us at the church, the service will start at 2pm. 

If you have any questions, please speak to the adult on the door or email us at class2@westbury-inf.wilts.sch.uk. The most up to date information can be found on the newsletter and the school website.

Have a great weekend.
