Our Learning this Week 17th October 2014

Ben and Betty have been teaching us the sound “f” this week.

We had a letter sent to nursery from Old Macdonald. He needed our help because all his animals had come out of their pens and were muddled up. We went outside to find the animals and when we came back we wrote a class letter to let him know that we had found all the animals.

We even had a letter back from Old Macdonald saying thank you for our help!

We sorted the farm animals into their pens and then counted to check if we had found them all.
We used foam on the maths table and had a go at writing the number 4 and number 5.

We had the rhyme props out for 5 speckled frogs so we could sing the rhyme counted how many were left after 1 jumped in.

We drew long lines outside and then measured them with our feet. We counted to see whose line was the longest/shortest.

We read the Rainbow Fish and talked about things the Rainbow Fish did to be friendly and things that he did that were not friendly. We talked about how we can be good friends. The children also told Rhodri who their friends are and what they like to do with them.

We used shiny paper to cut and stick to make our own shiny Rainbow Fish. We will use these to decorate our bathroom.
We also drew a pictures of our friends.

On Move-It Monday we practised our Kringeli Krangeli Write Dance again and the children are getting very good at their movement.
We also played a game of follow the leader, moving in lots of different ways using all parts of our body.

Shwmae Day on Wednesday was lots of fun as it was Welly Wednesday too! We went outside looking for all of Old Macdonald’s farm animals and when we had collected them all we counted them in Welsh (un, dau, tri, pedwar, pimp) and then we sang a farm animal song:
Mr. Buwch (cow) ydw i,
Mr. Dafad (sheep) ydw i,
Mr Hwyad (duck) ydw i,
Mr Ceffyl (horse) ydw i,
and Mr Mochyn (pig) ydw i,

Thanks

Have a great weekend
