Labelling the Beanstalk

We have enjoyed using our reading skills to label Jack’s beanstalk. We used the pictures on the labels, initial sounds and blending to read the labels and put them in the correct places.

Celebrating Sukkot

The children have been investigating the Jewish  festival of Sukkot.  As part of the festival they found out that as part of the celebration Jewish people build sukkahs or temporary shelters.  Here are some of the sukkahs that the children made using a variety of resources.
