Green Class Bakers

Today Green Class enjoyed making their own chocolate krispie cakes.

Children took it in turns to weigh out the ingredients and mix them all together before spooning into cake cases and decorating with a chocolate mini egg.

The Fairies have moved in!

Green Class discovered a Fairy garden had appeared in our outdoor area overnight. Reception children enjoyed building houses for the Fairies, making stick puppets and writing about where they thought the Fairies might have come from.

Phonics Apps

As we have had a few requests for apps that support Phonics I have put together a list that I have found to be useful and the link to a pdf document will be attached below.

Let me know if you find any of them useful or if there are other apps that I haven’t included that your child enjoys.

Pancake Day

Green Class celebrated Pancake Day by decorating and tasting pancakes. Children chose between strawberries, bananas and blueberries for their toppings before wrapping them up and tucking in!

 

 

Children all had a go at tossing a pancake using a frying pan with only a few ending up on the floor!

Children enjoyed re-building our bug hotel down at Forest School. They worked together to carefully place the equipment so that bugs of all sizes could have a cosy place to stay!

Book Fair

Reading in Unusual Places Competition

Our children have been so inspired by the reading day and so many were reading outside during their lunch breaks that it gave us an idea. We would love photos of your child reading in an usual place! It could be taken anywhere that they have an opportunity to read. Send them in and there will be a prize for the most unusual place. Pictures to be in by Tuesday 11th February.

Following the success of the reading day, we have arranged for a book fair during the week beginning Monday 30th March. It is being delivered by ‘Travelling Books’ and you can see a lot of information on their website.

The World Book Day vouchers will be given out on World Book Day which is on Thursday 5th March. You can choose to purchase a free book from bookshops or save your token until the bookfair and use it for £1 off a book.

World Book Day – Thursday 5th March. We will be encouraging children to come as a favourite character and we might see some different ones from the Bookfest books!
