happy new year and welcome back

Welcome back everyone and very best wishes for 2011. We have started the term well with our new topic about food and shopping. We have enjoyed playing in the cafe, practising being waiting staff, chefs and customers. We have made necklaces using pasta (and some of us are still wearing them!) and even tasted different pizza toppings. Fantastic writing has been going on too; starting last week when we received a card from poor old Foxy in hospital! Everyone wrote cards back, telling him all about our presents from Santa. This week, we've been writing about our weekend activities and about our favourite pizzas. In number work, we've started working out one more/less than a given number and putting our knowledge into action when thinking about real life problems, like is there enough fruit!
