Summer 1 overview

Shapes:

We have also been looking at 2d and 3d shapes and whether they stack, roll or both. 

Ball skills and team games:

As a class we have been pracitisng our ball skills; throwing, catching, rolling and kicking. We have also been looking at teamwork and what it means and how we can play team games. We have looked at the rules of the game and started to think of tactics.  

Fine motor skills:

We have been using our pincer grip to squirt water with the pipettes, use cotton buds to paint with and use hand movements to spray water. 

Our disgusting yucky gucky sandwiches:

We have made the best yucky gucky sandwiches ever linked ot our story of the Light housekeepers lunch. 

Exploring printing with paint: 

We have printed using our fingers, hands, wheels, animals, sticklebricks and more to explore how much paint we need, how much pressure to apply and how you can print without smudging.
