Week 2 Animals Topic : PETS

'BIG' Thank-you to Lottie and her family for the loan of their Hamster on Thursday!
The children were over- joyed to see another animal in class!

BOOK DAY Wednesday 4th March

Book Day is soon upon us again at JPS.
This is a time where the children have the opportunity to dress as a character from a book, bring the book into school and then have a talk to others about why they enjoyed their book!
This year we have a whole school theme of 'Heroes & Villains', but in FS1 we do not want to put parents to any added expense, as you have already supplied costumes for our 'Sing-a-long' Concert last year. Therefore please let your child come along dressed up for an exciting day and if possible to bring along the appropriate book!
Many thanks!

Week 2 Animals Topic

The little 'Monkeys Class' have been very excited this week as we concentrate on the theme of 'Pets'.
Mrs. Armstrong - a JPS swim teacher, bought in her dog 'Molly' and gave a very interesting talk to the children about how important it is to look after animals once you get them as a pet!.....and how much care they need from us as owners to be strong and healthy!

Brand New Topic!

We started the second half of this term with a brand new Topic!
We are looking at 'Animals'!
As the first week (17th - 19th Feb) was only a short week we decided to give a gentle introduction to the topic, firstly looking at which animals are covered in Fur/ Feathers/ Scales/ Skin etc. Then we looked at how the animals move around, using Paws/ Fins/ Webbed Feet or Claws!
During our PE lesson we thought about the different movements of animals and how they swing, slither, stomp and scurry!
The children thoroughly enjoyed their first week of Animals!!
