We really enjoyed Damian Harvey the author coming in to share some of his stories with us. Our favourite was his Spider poem
Police Officer Emma came to visit us and talk to us about how the police help people and keep us safe.
Ice challenges
- Look closely at the ice hands, what can you see? How do they feel?

Story Telling Week
Circus Skills
Ian came into our class and told us some funny stories about the circus. He then showed us how to pull funny clown faces and we pretended to splat ourselves in the face with custard pies!
We all practised our tightrope walking skills and even learned how to fall off in a funny way!
Christmas Party Time
Autumn Walk
Happy Halloween
We had a fabulous Halloween Fun Day, we all enjoyed dressing up and joining in with all the Halloween activities.
- we sang spooky songs with Hannah
- made balloon ghosts, monster masks, spiders and ghost pops.
- went on a hunt outside to find the trick or treat chocolate
- dunked for apples and searched for sweets
- had a monster muffin eating competition
- carved a pumpkin and had pumpkin soup for snack
This week we have been working with Ian the story teller.
We played different listening games - pass the sound, Chinese whispers and steal the treasure. We had to listen very carefully and work with our partners in the 'follow the finger game.'
We have also been inspired by a pictures of giants and we worked together to make a big picture of our giants and places we thought they might live.
We shared our thoughts and ideas and enjoyed using our imaginations to create our own stories about giants,
Listening carefully and sharing our ideas
