Alphabet Letters

This week our letters are: g,o,c,k. Everyday we practise them in different ways - outside with chalk, water, or in the sandpit, inside with felts, whiteboards or with letter strips.
Today we used the whiteboards.




"C" is for Crab

This morning we got really messy hand printing our crabs. These are for the letter "c".




"O" is for Octopus

Our octopi are hanging in the Discovery Room to help us remember the  letter "o".

iPad Stories

This morning we used the iPad's to listen to stories. We had to find them using the QR Code Reader.

Rainbow Fish

Rainbow Fish is a great story. We made a large rainbow fish all together so we could practise sharing and working together.


God Made Us All Special

This week we have been reading the story of Elmer the Elephant and we looked at how special he was. God has made each one of us special and unique too. We made our own patchwork elephants and then we made a life sized patchwork of ourselves.
