Unplugged
Lesson: Communication, Language and Listening
Class: Miss Kehoe - Rec 2 Year: 2017 - 2018
This week we have had a focus on a new book called 'Unplugged'.
Unplugged is about a robot/computer called Blip who becomes unplugged and makes new friends and does different activities in a new environment (outside).
During the week we have looked at toys which need to be plugged in (or use batteries) and those which don't. As a class we discussed different toys that we play with and which toys we find the most 'fun'. We voted as a class and the ipad had the majority vote. We discussed however, that the ipad is not fun when it needs to be plugged in and we can't move around with it or when it has run out of battery completely.
Later in the week, we used our phonics to write about what we would do with Blip if he was unplugged again. The children used some previous experiences such as what they did during the half term. Some children then wrote about something new which they would teach Blip. The children came up with some lovely suggestions such as teaching him to "count so he can play hide and seek" and "swim" because it is really important skill to learn.
Fantastic work Reception!
Look out for our work which will be included in a whole school display very soon.
