It has been an exciting first week back to school! ​

This week in English, we have been learning all about firefighters and fire engines. We discussed how firefighters need to train to make sure they are fit, healthy and extremely strong to carry out their duties. We enjoyed working with our friends to show each other how firefighters train. We enjoyed using our imagination and pretend playing wearing bulky clothing, helmets, heavy boots and pulling heavy equipment. We also had fun role playing dragging a heavy hose by using skipping ropes and running from one point to another putting out fire.  
 
In Maths this week, we enjoyed singing along to the Finger Family. The Finger Family brought us some wrapping paper to use, and we enjoyed using the wrapping paper to learn about repeating patterns. We were able to describe how the yellow and red colours repeat to form a pattern. We used our sentence structure to describe our pattern. We were able to say ‘The pattern is red, yellow, red, yellow, red, yellow.'
