'The Elves and the Shoemaker' Inspired Week in Reception

The clippity clop of high heels and thump-thump of boots could be heard from Reception class this week! Linked to our focus story ‘The Elves and the Shoemaker’, the children have enjoyed spending money and giving change in our class shoe shop.

In Maths we have been measuring and comparing our feet, using cubes and learning the importance of measuring accurately. After designing their own magical shoes, the children wrote descriptions of what they could do. Would you like rainbow shoes that could fly? Or perhaps some colour changing skates? The children practised their sewing skills in forest school using Autumn leaves and enjoyed identifying them using the key from Mrs Millard.  It has been a magical week!
