Grand Old Duke of York

This week we have had a fun packed few days.  We have been learning all about the rhyme ‘The Grand Old Duke of York’.  To enhance our learning, we made soldier hats, split pin soldiers to help us with the positional language in the rhyme as we moved them up and down the hill and we made soldier footprints in the paint.  Outdoors, we marched like soldiers and played parachute games while singing the rhyme.  Next week, we will be looking at the rhyme ‘Jack and Jill’

On Wednesday, we had a ‘bubbles’ workshop with NUSTEM.  The children were all very keen to participate in the activities.  We used different shape bubble wands to create bubbles nad jumped round, stretching up high to pop the bubbles which were floating up into the air.
