Continuing with our work with Monkey Puzzle, we looked at adjectives. We first discovered what an adjective was and then were given an animal from the story, and we had to describe it. 

In Maths, we have been looking at using counters to represent objects. We were given natural materials and then had to use chalk to draw counters to represent numbers using a big tens frame. 

We have settled into Year One really well and have loved our new provision areas! We have been creating new places with the blocks, using our motor skills to rip paper to make rainbows and used natural materials to create amazing masterpieces. 

In our writing lessons we have been looking at nouns. We read our class book of "Monkey Puzzle" and then had to try and find as many nouns as we could in the story! 

We have been learning about old toys in our History lessons. We had the opportunity to play with old toys such as wooden clowns, a flip book, old teddies and bat and ball!
