Today was a very exciting day in our classroom as it was our first visit from Baby Ralph and his Mummy as part of our Roots of Empathy Program. The children welcomed Baby Ralph by singing to him and touching his feet as his Mummy walked him around our special green blanket. We found out what Baby Ralph can do and can’t do just yet. We measured and weighed Baby Ralph and compared him to our Roots of Empathy doll. We thoroughly enjoyed our session with Baby Ralph and already looking forward to his next visit. Thank you Ralph and Victoria!
Have a listen to this fantastic version of Little Red Riding Hood captured during our play!
We programmed our robots to move around buildings and arrive at a parking spot. We added lights and sounds to our robots at the zebra crossing.
On Wednesday the nursery boys and girls went on an Autumn walk around our school grounds. They enjoyed looking at all the different trees and they were able to find trees that had very little leaves left. We looked at all the different shapes, sizes and colours of the leaves and we brought 2 full bags back to use in nursery during our play. We had our wellies on and had so much fun walking and swishing through all the crunchy leaves.
Today we welcomed Nicky and Nicola from Allstate in Strabane to our school. They told the girls in year 7 all about some inspirational women in the world. The girls were given beautiful books to read and activity books to complete. We look forward to our next visit from Nicky and Nicola in November.
This week we have started learning all about fractions in numeracy. In pairs we all got a pack of smarties and worked together to find the fraction of each colour of smartie. We then worked independently to find fractions of different amounts. We know the difference between the numerator and the denominator and know to divide by the bottom and multiply the top!
