The children have come back from half term happy and excited to learn. This week we have been learning about Chinese New Year. Many of the children were able to share their knowledge from the research and work they did for their home learning.
We read the story of the animals race and then we found out which year we were born in. This year is the year of the dog. We all did some careful cutting to make Chinese lanterns and explored how to use chopsticks in the noodles.
Some children did some lovely pictures of Chinese dragons and made Dragons out of junk modelling and cutting and sticking. We have had a very enjoyable week.
Next week is Book week. Our Author of the week is Julia Donaldson and we will be focussing on two of her books. We would like the children to bring in their favourite book in the week and a cushion on Friday for our whole school read. We are looking forward to an enjoyable week.
The rat won the race. My big brother harvey is the year of the race.
