Learning the word 'My'

Today Sophie, William and Connor learnt to write the word my and then recognise it in their reading book.


Look at the fantastic one-one pointing they each did as they read their book.








Gym

On Wednesday we went to the boys and girls gym club for our second session. We learnt how to balance.

Makaiden said, "That it was a lot of fun balancing on one foot". Lilly said, "It was a lot of fun . We had to balance on each others back with one foot. It was hard."
Once they had finished learning this skill they went and did some circuits to put this into practice. The children love going to the gym and can't wait till they go next week.
