The children in year four have been learning all about ‘The Digestive System’. They have even created their own models using play doh.
The last few Autumn activities and then we have been dipping a toe into Christmas!
A snowy surprise this morning! So we decided to investigate, build and sledge! A fabulous day of creating snowmen, snow angels, sledging and investigating melting snow!❄️ ⛄️ ❤️
This week Reception have been all things pumpkin as we have been using the story Pumpkin Soup in English . We investigated, counted, painted and created so much pumpkin themed learning! We also talked about Remembrance Day and created poppies for our tree⭐️❤️⭐️
We have had a very busy first week back! Using our maths skills, Sounds Write skills and being very creative. We have been looking at China and visiting our Chinese restaurant we created.
A fabulous Halloween spooktacular week in Reception! Potions, spells, magical moments and amazing creativity
Today we launched our new theme in LMTW ‘Come Fly with me Arctic
Circle’. We started by discussing that frozen water was ice. The children found out that the Arctic was mainly made of ice and snow and that it is very cold there. We discussed that global warming is affecting the Arctic more and more each day due to climate change. As a class we decided to have an ice challenge to see who could hold the ice for the longest periods without it melting and used classroom objects to prevent it from melting too quickly. This was extremely fun but quite challenging. The children came up with some amazing vocabulary to describe how the ice felt.
Take a look at some of the homework created this half term linked to ‘Lightning Speed’. Well done year 4.
We have definitely embraced Autumn in Reception this week! Making Autumn wands, repeating patterns and prints and capacity using conkers. The children have been using their Sounds Write skills and emerging handwriting to write sounds and words. A very busy and fabulous week ❤️
As part of the Four Seasons project, we carried out an investigation to answer ‘Do all trees change colour in Autumn?’ We went on an autumn walk, observing and collected various autumnal objects. We discovered that some trees are deciduous and some are evergreen. We also learnt that some birds migratre south for the warmer weather.
With the things we collected along the way, we created some artwork inspired by Richard Shilling. We are really proud of our creations!
