We are builders!

We used a variety of wooden blocks and loose parts to build ourselves. 

Look at our super painting

We choose colours for a purpose and painted different types of vehicles. 

Different types of transport 

We sorted the vehicles into land, sea and sky. 

Bus stop 

We took turns playing the bus stop game. We rolled the dice to determine the number of passengers to count on to our bus.

Which car travelled the furthest? 

We built a ramp using the wooden blocks. We pushed the cars down the ramp to see how far they travelled. 

Our town 

We familiarised ourselves with the town school is located in. We explored maps and photographs taken from our town -Mansfield.

"My sister went to this swimming" -Amelia (Water meadows).

"Shop. We get clothes" -Gracie (Primark). 

"I've been to that park before" -Willow (Titchfield park).

Mechanics

We've been working in the garage. We've been using different tools to repair the vehicles. 

The naughty bus

We found a naughty bus in our classroom! It left black wheel marks on our classroom floor. 
Our teacher read the story ‘The Naughty Bus. We discussed:

Who has seen a bus like this before? Have you been on a bus? Where did you go? What did you see out of the window? What job does a bus have? Why are buses important? Where do you see a bus? Where would you like to go on a bus?

"I go to Nana's" -Peggy. 

"I've been to the library with Mamma and Grandad" -Harry.
