What a wonderful week we have had. We have continued to learn about the Moon and the phases it goes through. This was a very tricky lesson, however we were able to remember that a waxing Moon means it is going and a Waning Moon means that it is getting smaller before it then turns into a New Moon. To help us understand this process, we used biscuits to show the different stages the Moon goes through.

 

As we have become so confident at matching analogue and digital times, some of us have been learning to write the time on a digital clock. We were really good at this and it helped us practice our number formation. Some of us started to convert analogue times to digital times and vise versa which we all did independently and very confidently.

In art this week we have created our own Moon prints using shaving foam and paint. This was a great sensory activity for us all and we made some amazing Moon prints. We also made Moons using tin foil. We scrunched up the tin foil and dabbed it into paints and then across our paper to create different textures.

Finally, this week we went out into the Yurt, which we always love. In the morning we did a lovely yoga story. We got ourselves prepared for going to space and went on an amazing adventure. In the afternoon we made some lovely Valentines day cards for our loved ones.
