Hello everyone!

Yesterday I began to make phone calls to all the children in Base 2 and it was so lovely hear your voices and chat with  your mums and dads. I am in school on Friday and will continue to phone everyone in Base 2 for a lovely catch up chat!

I have had some amazing photos sent of the fun things you have been doing at home and you can view some of these on the Foundation Stage Blog. Thomas is enjoying a daily walk and has had the idea of collecting items to bring back home and then he has used his maths skills to sort and count the items! You too could do this! The next time you go out for a walk take a small bag to find and collect different items like:

Fat sticks and thin sticks short and long sticks,  feathers , something red yellow green

different shaped leaves  and so on.

Bring them home and sort , count or arrange them to make a picture? Can you make a snail or a butterfly?? Or set a trail for a family member to follow leading to a surprise or maybe your own home made den!More activities can be found: https://www.getoutwiththekids.co.uk/activities/doing/activities-walking-woods-kids/ and the woodland trust web site!

I also learnt that some of you have been writing letters to each other! May be you could draw a picture for a neighbour or friend as a surprise! You may get a surprise back!

As ever stay safe and enjoy having fun with your families
