McKee class were very excited to be back in school this week and launched into the vehicle topic with gusto. The children have lots of ideas about activities they would like to do and things they would like to learn.
The first one, we took on board, was how to clean cars (as you have already seen). Lots of children talked about being in a car at a car wash at what it was like. We also answered the question of are all trucks shiny.
The role play area is being transformed into a bus, because most children said they have never been on one and they thought it would be exciting to have one in this area. The toy cars have come out and so has the train track. We have been busy making a road for the cars.
We did not get time to tell you, last half term, that we were awarded Henry at the celebration assembly. Mr Cadwallader had the special treat of choosing the weekly winners for this, his last celebration assembly, and we were delighted he chose McKee class from the lower school.
Mrs Matthews reminded us all of the school uniform policy. Uniform was the "tweak of the week". As you can see in McKee class we do sometimes allow a few extra items during the day as long as you arrive in the correct uniform - these girls added their accessories to get them in the correct frame of mind for writing!
We have enjoyed listening to stories and singing along to songs at our new listening station! The children were surprised to find this in the class when they returned and it has been a popular addition to the reading area.
Thank you for all the transport books that you have sent in for us to share, please keep them coming and any toy vehicles. Also if anyone has a job that is to do with vehicles we would love you to share it with us.
We look forward to telling you a little bit more about our learning in our assembly next week.
