Thomas Willingale School and Nursery
Summer Term
Week beginning 15th April 2024
Welcome back everyone! We hope you had a lovely restful break and are looking forward to the start of our Summer term!
This half term, we will be exploring our new topic all about homes. This week, the children have enjoyed naming different types of home, using the construction materials to make impressive buildings and developing their listening skills to construct a home using 2D shapes including squares, triangles and rectangles.
During our creative lessons the children have used a range of different shapes to construct their own homes. The children then enjoyed speaking about who lives in their homes. During our maths lessons this week, the children have been using 2D shapes to build houses and practise listening to and following instructions.
Our lovely role play corner has been changed with the children's help to a builders yard where they will be able to practise building and constructing impressive models using a range of materials. In our daily phonics lessons, the children have really impressed us with their knowledge of the letter c and we will continue this next week using the letter k.
This week, we have also been learning about Eid-al-Fitr, making mehndi patterns and Eid cards. Eid Mubarak to all those celebrating.
Next week, we will be exploring number writing and making lovely maps of the school grounds.
