We're Going on a Bearhunt.
We really enjoyed Michael Rosen's reading of his book, he really brings it to life.

I adore this version, the animation is gorgeous.

Printable Number Line 0 - 10
Free printable Number Line to download and print.
I have found it difficult in the past to find a numberline with the number picture and number in written form so I've made my own. Hope you find it useful.

The Number 4
The Story of 4
Last week we began learning about the Number 4. Today we used a bus template and animals instead of the usual number frame to explore the story of 4
The Animal Bus
I also had the same bus and animals on the Smart board for demonstration, which the class really enjoyed.
Our Resource teacher joined us at this point and straight away saw another excellent use of this template, that is using it to teach and practise positional words. Put the bat on top of the bus, put the bat behind the lion and in front of the ladybird. YOu can make it as easy/difficult as you want.
I have not yet figured out how to add a notebook file, but I may add it as a powerpoint presentation which you can open with Notebook.
The Animal Bus
Of course lots of songs and videoas again on Sesame Street!

Santa
Some of my favourite Christmas websites! Enjoy.
Santasearch.org
Great website, beautiful personalised free emails from Santa.
"Welcome to SantaSearch, a not-for-profit dedicated group of compassionate, caring volunteers who touch the hearts of children and adults by bringing the joy of the Christmas season."
I have used this website for the last few years for my class to send emails to Santa, and we have always had wonderful replies.
Lots of reading and news about preparations in the North Pole, always exciting updates everyday.
I was sent this website last year and made the personal message for Alicia and it was just fabulous, the website doesn't look much but the resulting video is fantastic.

The Grinch
Another fantastic unit of work, which I don't think I'll get around to doing this year as we are aiming to do the Polar Express but some of you may find it helpful. This is from another great blog that I follow Mrs Jump's Class which has lots of lovely ideas for Junior Classes.
Polar Express
A fantastic unit on The Polar Express book from April Larremore, make sure to visit her blog for other great units which she so generously shares. I look forward to doing this one with my class before Christmas (if we can fit it around the Wriggly Nativity!)
