Autumn 2 Week 5 – Learning about Christmas

Stars of the Week: Joseph & Mila

This week we have started to think about Christmas. After listening to the Christmas story we spent time talking about what we know about the story and also who some of the people in the story are. Mila and Joseph thought very carefully about the characters in the Christmas story, remembering important people such as Mary, Joseph and the wise men.

We learned that the Christmas story takes place in Bethlehem. Throughout the week we worked alongside Reception to create a hall display board inspired by the carol ‘O Little Town Of Bethlehem’. We will post a picture of the display on Friday!

Next week: Our focus in phonics will be the letter ‘n’. In Maths we will be exploring how to weigh objects and using words such as ‘heavier’ and ‘lighter’. We will also continue our learning about Christmas, focusing on learning our words for the Nativity performance on Wednesday 11th December.
