What a group of little children can do with a Pumpkin?

Rodrigo's family provided Reception Bears

with a massive pumpkin.

We chopped the pumpkin and weighed it on a balance against the sugar to make some pumpkin jam.

It was fun to see the balance tip, showing if there was enough pumpkin or not, and if sugar and pumpkin were even in weight.

We also took some pumpkin to the school cook

and she made some delicious soup with it.

We hope everyone can enjoy some pumpkin jam

on some delicious toast over half term.

Reception Bears enjoyed the story of Winnie's Amazing Pumpkin

Colourful PE

Can you follow instructions? 
Can you run around, go under, skip, change places,
walk fast and faster, change direction, stretch, pull, roll,..

We had loads of fun using the parachute in our PE lesson.

what other feelings can you express with your face?

Ted had an artistic weekend

This weekend Ted painted and learnt how to play the piano.

He also made some new friends.

They look very happy together, don't you think?

Bárbara loves:

the blue sky

the orange leaf
the white flower
the green grass

Bárbara has found lots of circles at home

Are you wondering if Bárbara lives in a round house,

eats at a round table and sleeps in a round bed?

If she does not, it is still fun to imagine she does.
