Cursive writing
We enjoyed a visit from the police this week. They talked to us about keeping safe, what to do if we ever get lost in town or a shop and they let us look at their uniforms and some equipment too!
This week we have been looking at the story 'We're Going on a Bear Hunt' and thinking about how we could rewrite it with a Polar theme! We're going to write 'We're Going on a Polar Bear Hunt'.
Today, during our forest school session, we acted out the story of We're Going on a Bear Hunt and had too look around for things we could go over, under, through and into before running away from the scary shadow bear we found!
