Green bubble - Let's celebrate!
Date: 10th Jul 2020 @ 1:23pm
Green bubble have been so busy this week learning about minibeasts. We have created collage caterpillars and even made our own flapping butterflies. We had lots of fun developing our physical skills with dough disco, rolling caterpillars and creating butterflies with the dough. We have been super listeners, listening to environmental sounds in phonics and using body percussion to create different sounds. We have also enjoyed using Numicon and counting and writing numerals and have made little booklets about the life cycle of a butterfly as well as listening and writing initial sounds in words.
🌟 Well done Green bubble, you are all superstars!🌟

Yellow Bubble Celebration Videos Week 3
Date: 10th Jul 2020 @ 9:32am
Welcome to our weekly celebration blog. It’s been another busy week completing challenges and enjoying sharing our learning with each other in Yellow Bubble. Here are some videos of what we have been up to this week. Links to the videos are at the bottom if you want to watch them.
Day 1 Aaargh Spider
Today we practiced our maths skills and then Mrs Ganner set us some challenges. First of all we had to create a minibeast from a toilet roll! Then we had to use the indoor and outdoor construction to create places from the spider story of the day.
Day 2 Spinderella
After some free play practicing counting and labelling sets we watched our next spider story of the day. In Spinderella her spider brothers and sisters got sore feet from playing football without boots on. Spinderella’s Hairy Godmother gave them all football boots so we drew boots onto our spiders too. Can you work out the link between the story and a traditional tale?
Day 3 Spyder
Spyder had to save the day by stopping the nasty bluebottle fly eating the birthday cake. He used one of his talents to do this. The children constructed their very own Spyder with silk attached to his spinnerets so he could complete his mission. Then Spyder hid around the play area looking for a new mission
Day 4 Silk the Spider Meets Sam the Caterpillar
Did you know that when a caterpillar is in its’ cocoon they are vulnerable because they can’t escape the birds trying to eat them? In this story Silk saved Sam from the birds by creating a web. Do you think our webs will save Sam?

Congratulations to Zarak, Heer, Ganesa, Faith and Naomi who all found out that Kathmandu is the capital city of Nepal.
Maddison told me that Kathmandu has many beautiful monasteries and temples including the highly decorated Pashupatinath Temple.
Today, can you tell me the country with the capital Ulaanbaatar ?
Good luck !

It is 1,454 feet tall
It was in the King Kong films.
It took one year to build.
It has 102 floors.
They began building it on the 17th March 1930.

Good morning !
Well done to Faith, Zarak, Ganesa, Heer, Naomi and Maddison who all let me know that Nairobi is the capital of Kenya. Faith told me that she plans to visit Kenya in the future to go on a safari and Maddison found out that Nairobi is the second largest city in the African Great Lakes region. Heer and Ganesa also did some research and found out that Nairobi is located just south of the centre of the country. Fantastic research skills !
Today's capital is Kathmandu. Can you find out the country?
