WHAT A VERY EXCITING LAST TERM WE HAVE PLANNED FOR YOU. WE WILL BE HAVING SO MUCH FUN, AND HOPEFULLY IN THE WARM SUN.
We are going to look at toys that we love to play with, and then what toys did our parents or grandparents play with?
We will discover are they the same, different, better, funny and which ones do we like the best?
We will have a few exciting books to read and look at, and we would also like you to bring in your favourite Teddy Bear for a picnic.
NEXT WE WILLBE LOOKING AT GOING ON A HOLIDAY.
HOW WILL WE TRAVEL? IS IT BY CAR, BOAT, BUS,TRAIN OR PLANE?
We will discover what is at the seaside, or what can we do while there? What happens in the summer time do we wear or do things differently? Wewill also look at the different countries in the world have we been lucky to travel to any that we can remember? It will give us lots to talk about.
I’m sorry that I shall not be there to see all this, but I am sure Miss Richardson, Mrs Brehney, Miss Johnson and Mrs O’Callaghan will ensure its amazing, have FUN!!!!!!
