Foundation Stage 2 news...
Space Helmets
We used different materials to make space helmets to wear on our journey to the moon. We went on an adventure just like Little Bear in the book ‘Whatever Next’.
Moon Rocks
We made bags to fit the moon rocks that we found. They had fallen from space and we needed to make sure our bags were big and strong enough.
Chinese Food and Restaurant
We tasted Chinese food in class. We tried noodles, fried rice, spring rolls and prawn crackers with dips. Yum! We also took on different roles in our class Chinese Restaurant. We read the menu, ordered our food and a chef cooked it for us.
Chinese Dragon Dance
We used percussion instruments to create music for our Chinese Dragon Dance. We worked with our friends to make our own dances.
Chinese New Year
We found out about Chinese New Year in class. We made dragons, lanterns and made the Chinese arch in Liverpool.
Rock Ferry Library
We walked to Rock Ferry Library to meet Kirsten the librarian. We read our ‘Booktrust’ story and made masks. We loved looking at the different buildings that we saw on the way there.
Roma and Sita
We dressed up as Roma and Sita from the Diwali Story. Don’t we look great?
Quilts
We made quilts using different textures to keep the characters from ‘Pumpkin Soup’ nice and cosy.
Nativity
We performed the ‘Wriggly Nativity’ for our family. We had fun singing and dancing.
Making soup
We chopped up our ingredients and mixed them all together to make our own pumpkin soup. Mmmmmmm- it was delicious.
