This week we started our topic of old toys. We got the old toy box out and took turns to try out the toys. We compared them to the toys we have now and discussed what has changed, thinking about materials and electrics and the way we play with the toys.
As part of our first science topic, we looked at the human body and tried to remember as many facial features as we could. We then drew around one of our class and labelled all the different parts of their body we could think of.
This week we found a special visitor in our class on the carpet when we came in from our break time. Knuffle Bunny and a washing machine were on the carpet. We made predictions about who could have left him there and then linked to the book cover. We created artwork inspired by Knuffle Bunny and Lost posters after he went missing from our classroom.
