Weekly Catch-Up 18.10.24

This week, we have been talking about our feelings...

Story focus: The Colour Monster by Anna Llenas

Phonics focus: lots of blending practise and handwriting practise. 

Maths focus: subitising to 4, showing the amount on our fingers. We have been comparing amounts using the words 'more' and 'fewer'. We have been using the stem sentences ' ___ has more', '__is more than __' and '___ has fewer'.

PSHCE focus: we introduced the Zones of Regulation, talking through feelings and placing them in the different zones. We have also recapped last week's social story about Scout and remembered the three things we can do when we are in the blue, yellow or red zone: do something that makes us feel calm; talk to a grown up or walk away. 

Science focus: keeping healthy. We made a list of things we do which keep us healthy e.g exercise, eating a balanced diet, brushing our teeth, washing.  But we forgot about how important sleeping is!

PE focus: moving in space and moving in different ways. 

COOL Time (Choosing Our Own Learning): this is where we play and interact with each other, taking turns and forming relationships. We are choosing the resources we need and adults are showing us how to use them. We need to put things away.
