World Book Day
Superheroes!
Dinosaurs!
We have started a new and exciting topic of 'Dinosaurs'!
This week we will be researching interesting facts and creating fact files. In maths we will be exploring measuring and in our creative curriculum work we will be making dinosaur sock puppets.
We have lots of other fun activities for you to explore too!
Have fun! 
An erupting volcano!
Happy Chinese New Year!
Dress to Express!
As part of 'Children's Mental Health Week' we took part in the 'Dress to Express' challenge. We dressed up in clothes that make us feel happy and that express parts of our personalities. Some of us chose our favourite colours to wear, some of us chose costumes of characters that we admire, some of us wore things that reflect our personalities or are connected to our hobbies or likes. Some of us chose clothes that simply make us feel good! Don't we look AMAZING!
The Jungle
This week we started a topic all about 'The Jungle'. We hope you managed to pack your pretend suitcase to join us.
In literacy we listened to the story 'Walking through the Jungle' and created story maps of our own to show which animals we might meet along the way.
In maths we worked on comparing numbers to 5. We explored this in lots of different ways.
In our creative curriculum work we looked at work by the artist Henri Rousseau. We focused on the painting 'Tiger in a tropical storm' and recreated the masterpiece in our own style!
A brilliant endangered animal poster!
Being a super scientist!
Groovy Groovers Daily Warm Up!

Ice
This week has been very different and all of the staff in Doves Class want to say a BIG WELL DONE for adapting to this new way of working.
This week you have started to explore ice and hopefully some of the snow outside. We wonder what you did in the snow... did you build any snowmen? maybe you had a snowball fight? or even went sledging? Whatever you did, we hope you had fun!
In literacy you explored arctic creatures, found out some facts and did some labelling.
In maths you learnt about 'Zero' and did some counting back.
In school on Monday, we explored ice and the different shapes and patterns that ice can form. We also investigated the speed at which ice melts when placed in different environments.
Keep up the great work Doves!
Careful counting
