We have been super busy this week, we moved into our second classroom, we had visitors from Emma’s class, who came to play and read us some stories and we finished off the week with Ally’s class who came to Jessie’s birthday party! 

We have also been celebrating Valentines Day this week and made Valentine’s Day cards, explored rose petals, love hearts, confetti and lots of other items relating to Valentines Day. 
In cookery we made a lovely tomato soup and explored the tomatoes with our feet! We continued to enjoy our Winter TacPac and Sensory story and our visit to Twinkle House for soft play and swimming.

We are still enjoying our Sensory Story ( Say Hello to the Snowy Animals) and winter themed TacPac and Sensology sessions. 
This week we made sweet potato and chorizo soup and tried to figure out which of the 2 switches controlled the blender. We all tasted it and thought it was yummy.
