Last week we were learning about the letter ‘K’. We looked at the capital ‘K’ and the lowercase ‘k’. The children all enjoyed trying to write these on the whiteboard. We also looked at pictures of items with the beginning sound of ‘k’ and matched some of these on a powerpoint. Some children traced the letters and some wrote them independently. We read a story called “Being Kind” written by Trace Maroney. We then enjoyed making our kindness crowns and pretended to be kindness kings and queens. Everyone had lots of fun choosing and sticking gems onto our crowns. Look how awesome we look.

We enjoyed learning about the letter ‘K’ and we always remember to be kind.

We have also been learning about the story of ‘The Enormous Turnip’ for our Talk for Writing unit.

We have been learning and having fun doing the actions to our story. We went to Mrs Bennetts garden to help her pull an enormous turnip from her garden. It was hard work and we needed help from everyone to pull the ‘enormous’ turnip out of the magic soil. We also planted some turnip seeds and we are regularly checking to see how they are growing. Everyone has had fun enjoying seed play in our tuff tray in the classroom.
