Sunny weather!

This week we are learning all about the sun and sunny weather. This afternoon we talked about what we know about the sun - for example, it's very hot - and what we know about staying safe in the sun. We read a book about a girl getting ready to go out in the sun. She made sure she was covered up, had a hat on and put suncream on. We also talked about wearing sunglasses to protect our eyes.

Then we looked at some things from our clothes shop role play and talked about whether they were for sunny days or not.

Then we thought about things we like to do when it's really warm and sunny. We played a game where we had to mime doing something and everyone else had to guess what we were doing. We had people miming sunbathing, swimming, digging in the sand and eating ice creams, and even miming putting on a summer dress - well done Maddie for a super mime, and well done to Grace for guessing it right!

After that we drew a picture of what we like doing on sunny days on our sunshine writing paper and wrote about it. When we had finished our pictures and our writing we shared our work with the rest of the class. First we read our work - we had to stand at the front and practise our speaking skills by speaking in a loud, clear voice and not rushing. Then Miss Ayres put our work under the visualiser so we could all see each other's drawing and writing.
