Class 1 We have had a very busy week in Class 1 and are very impressed with how our children are settling into our new routines. Our phonics sessions have begun, with Nursery focusing on nursery rhymes while Reception are learning new phonemes and graphemes each day - they are doing amazingly! In SCARF we are talking 'All About Us' - what we like, what makes us happy, and why it's good to be different. In maths we have been busy sorting as well as helping our visitor Mr Parrot to count out his toys carefully. In literacy Reception have begun their work based on 'The Something', with lots of brilliant ideas, while Nursery have been focussing on 'The Tiger who came for Tea'. We had a fantastic time at our first Forest School of the year - what a sunny afternoon! We are looking forward to many more adventures over the next few weeks, although probably less sunny ones.

Class 1 What a fantastic few days we have had in Class 1! We have spent lots of time exploring inside and out - thankfully the weather has meant lots of practice on the new trim trail and climbing equipment, our huge new chalk board has been in action and the sand pit has been busy as always. It has been lovely to see how kind and caring our children are: welcoming new friends; taking turns; playing together and working as a team. We have shared stories, enjoyed snack, sung songs, celebrated friends' successes (swimming, horse riding, first time on a plane), worked on our self-portraits and made sand smoothies. Well done, everyone!

Class 1 have enjoyed watching the work on our exciting new outdoor area, looking at the different machines and guessing what's going to happen next. We have enjoyed spending lots of time playing with our friends before our summer break. We have also been practising our number formation, tricky words, and making posters to tell our new starters all about Class One. Have a fabulous, well deserved break and we'll see you in September!

Class 1 we have enjoyed our moving up day - Reception were excited to tell us all about their adventure to Class 2, and Nursery welcomed some new friends who will join us in September. In Maths, Reception have been busy making their own maps showing how they get to school. Nursery have been reading 'Titch' and shared ideas about what happens as we get older. We have all been working hard to draw our self-portraits - an activity we do each half term - and tried to include as much detail as possible. Fantastic effort everyone!

Class 1 have lots of favourite things to share this week! 

I liked eating popcorn at the woods. The obstacle course we made outside was really good. I liked the playdough best because it was super sticky. Our dinner - I always eat it all up! I liked making popcorn and hot chocolate at Forest School. Mrs Pott's chocolate brownie. Playing with all my friends. The parkour obstacle course was amazing, it was really tricky not stepping on the grass. Sports day was a highlight - I loved sports day, my mum and Grandma were there and I got a 1^st place sticker, I liked sports day because I was so excited because once I watched my brother do it and now I've done it and my family came to watch, I liked sports day because my mummy did one of the races!

Class 1 have had an amazing week! We enjoyed a trip to Dalscone Farm Park, where we saw lots of different animals, time exploring and a fantastic day out. The children were all brilliant ambassadors for Crosby School, we are very proud of them.  Reception have been busy writing the second part of their whale poem - we know their families will be very impressed. We have been practising for sports day, with everyone showing their friends support and encouragement to do their best. In SCARF we looked at how baby animals are different from their parents and shared the story 'Monkey Puzzle'. Another busy week!
