It has been a very busy few weeks in Dosbarth Eryr, rehearsing our wonderful Nativity, making items to sell at the Christmas Fayre, making Christingles in preparation for our Christingle service in the Church. Christmas jumper Day saw us raising money for the Air Ambulance. Nadolig Llawen!
We are looking forward to our Children in Need challenges this afternoon.
Today we learned about Remembrance Day. We enjoyed potato printing poppies.
Today, we had a planetarium visit from ‘Dark Skies’ at Elan Valley. We sat inside and were able to see the stars and planets. It was very exciting!
We have explored making patterns for the sail of our boats. We know that penguin particularly enjoys repeating patterns!
Today, we planned activities to make us smile and feel happy as part of Hello Yellow where we are thinking of children’s mental Health. Baking and fresh air with our friends!
Our Reception pupils have been busy counting the correct number of objects outside to match their given number. Great counting everyone. Da iawn pawb!
This week we have already begun to practise our number recognition and counting skills. Da iawn pawb!
We have consolidated all our learning of the rainforest by making a rainforest in a shoebox. We thought about the weather, features of the rainforest and the animals that live there.
As part of our community-based art project, we worked with Ciara and Izzy from Old School Arts to create a mural of birds flying over Knighton. Every learner in the school was involved in the project, from painting the mural to creating their own bird. This project followed our work from Refugee Week and the theme of ‘Community as a Superpower’ and that together we are strong, creative and make things happen.
