Today we looked at some of the traditions around Easter. We realised, when we looked at the calendar, we won't be at school when the Easter Bunny usually comes so we wrote letters to see if he could come early to Millbrook!
This week we have been very busy surprising our mums for Mother's Day! We made cards with our own special words and made fridge magnets with unique designs! Thank you Mummies for all you do for us!
Reception have been inspired by the artist Yayoi Kusama. We then did our made our own art using dots! Each one unique and beautiful!
In Reception we are good at looking after the school guinea-pigs! We groomed them and then feed them their favourite treat - grass!
This week we revisited and built on our mathematical understanding of measures. We used non-standard units to measure length and height. Even Mr Biling got involved! I wonder how many bricks tall he was?
Some deep understanding of numbers going on in Reception as we played close your eyes, open, say what you see... "I see 7 and it's odd" how do you know "because it's in the 5s way now but if it was in the 2s way it wouldn't have a pair". Can you move it to prove it? "I sure can!"
We read Pete the Cat- Perfect Pizza Party! Then we had a competition to see who could draw the craziest pizza! My favourite being a numberblock pizza! It was also a great opportunity to explore words as we decided some weren't crazy but disgusting, revolting or even repulsive!
