Show and Tell theme: As part of our Jigsaw PSHE lesson we will be looking at how we grow and change as we get older.  We thought it would be nice to have photographs of the children as babies to play a guess who game!  Please send in a baby photo of your child (we can always make copies or receive emails).

 

Song of the week:

We will be practicing some of the more recent songs we have been learning.

 

Homework:

Draw a picture of you as a baby.  Can you use a photo to look at the shapes, colours and styles you can, see?  We have worked on colour mixing and using the right colours to represent.  Can you do this in your picture?

In the warm weather please ensure you have a sunhat and water bottle in school.
