3D shapes and new topic

This morning we have been learning about 3D shapes. We have looked at cubes, cuboids, cylinders, spheres, pyramids, prisms and cones. 

We enjoyed looking around the classroom and outside in the playground  for the different shapes. We unfortunately could not find a pyramid - until after lunch! The nursery has a tepee!!

See our slideshows below - the first one has cubes and cuboids, the second has spheres, cylinders and cones.

We have started our new topic of space this week. We would like to learn about:

• The planets – size/colours
• The stars
• Gravity
  
• The Moon
• Rockets – how do we get there?
• How long does it take to get to the moon?

We watched a video from the International Space Station and really enjoyed it (it was cool....).
