This week in room 1 we’ve introduced some lovely new additions to our environment. A retro telephone has been sparking lots of curiosity and encouraging children to explore numbers while engaging in imaginative conversations. 💬🔢The change in seasons has also brought us a wonderful collection of conkers, which the children have enjoyed investigating, counting, and using in their play. 🌰🍁These new resources have really encouraged communication, interaction, and rich shared experiences. It’s been wonderful to see the children so engaged and inspired! 🌟 ... See MoreSee Less

What a joyful start room 1 have had! This week, the children have been busy settling back into routines, making new friends, and exploring everything our classroom has to offer.📖 We read Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? and enjoyed fun activities inspired by the story—colour hunts, animal matching, and lots of creative art.🤝 It has been so heartwarming to watch new friendships forming as the children play, share, and discover together.🌧️ One of the week’s highlights was heading outside after the thunderstorm—there were big smiles as everyone had a blast splashing in puddles.We’re so excited for all the learning, laughter, and adventures ahead in Room 1 this year. 💛📸 Here are some snapshots from our first week back!Home learning this week is to learn to sing and sign the song “Incy wincy spider” 🕷️ 👇 youtu.be/f8vn9dvqoYc?si=kkihNSKMpxwFtJXn ...
