This week we have enjoyed being back with our friends and starting our new topic of ‘growing’. We have each made ‘a bean in a bag’ which we have stuck on our window and will watch them grow. We know that the bean seed needs water and sunlight in order to germinate (this is Jerone’s new favourite word)!! We will keep the paper towel wet and we have the sun shining through the window. We are hopefully shoots will begin to show soon.

We have also introduced the children to Rekenreks. We have been practicing getting our Rekenrek into the start position on the floor and have been noticing how many red and white counters there are. We have been practicing ‘pushing’ counters to the side and noting how many we have pushed.
