Our first day back was wonderful we spoke about our holidays and we celebrated the birthdays that we missed during the holidays. We also introduced our new topic the great barrier reef. We then learnt about the different types of fish found under the sea and created some fish for our display.

On Tuesday we started our new routine in class which is a work carousel where we move to a different member of staff every 10 minutes to do different activities. In the afternoon we had our food technology lesson where we made quiche with tortilla wraps, eggs and cheese.

Wednesday was a day full of arts and crafts to make our classroom  ‘under the sea’ themed. We made jelly fish and octopuses to add to our aquarium. We then made more jelly fish with paper chains, testing our fine motor skills. After that, we  had a relaxing yoga session to end our day.

Thursday morning began with our carousel of work and then we had a calming meditation session. In the afternoon we had the thrive room, our favorite time  of the week.

On Friday we had the first assembly of the half term. We then finished our morning with our work carousel. In the afternoon we began our new story, The rainbow fish. This is all about sharing and being a kind friend. This then lead nicely to our choice time, practicing sharing our toys. We played with the doctors and nurses roll play kit and cared for our friends.
