Oak Learning Update

Central idea: People communicate to share knowledge and experiences.

A huge THANK YOU to Hudson for looking after Rosie so well during her first Team Oak sleepover. She spent time meeting Hudson's family and enjoying many adventures. Hudson spoke incredibly well in front of the entire class to share their time together.

This week we have used the Colour Monster text to discuss our emotions, we have spoken at length about what makes us happy. Team Oak were unanimous when they shared their ideas with friends. Christmas makes them happy. We have started to talk about Christmas traditions. Wren was quick to say "... well, you have to write a letter to Santa!" We will be focusing on using the sounds we know to write a letter next week and of course, we will keep you updated with the progress.

While discussing family traditions, Freddie said "Santa doesn't know where I live." This gave us an idea! We used tea to stain paper before studying maps of the world and atlases to ensure we were accurate when providing directions. All in all we've had a wonderful week of learning!

Reminders:

Please bring books in on Mondays and Thursdays so they can be changed.
