Over the last few weeks we have enjoyed lots of practical literacy and numeracy activities to help us develop our knowledge of sounds and our concept of numbers, shapes, size and sorting.
Have a look at our amazing autumn trees. We used rollers to paint our background, then following our numeracy lesson on ‘thick and thin’, we explored using varying thicknesses of paintbrush to paint our tree trunk, branches and twigs. To finish, we used autumn colours to print our autumn leaves with spools and corks.
We have nearly finished our ICT minibeast presentation and we can't wait to share it with you.
We also participated in a Nuture in 5 lesson using yoga exercises and breathing techniques.
Take a look...
Today was ‘World Porridge Day’. This ties in very nicely with ‘p’ being our sound of the week. As part of our Global learning lessons, we were looking at world hunger. So, as well as celebrating World porridge day, we wanted to do something to help other children in the world who are going hungry. We decided to raise money through our porridge party to donate to a charity called Mary’s meals, with the aim of feeding a child in Malawi or Zambia one meal per school day for a year.
We celebrated by making porridge & lots of the children tasted some. Others even asked for more!! 😋☺️
Children in other countries do not have food so we brought in £1 each to sponsor a child.
The children showed empathy for other children, just like them on planet earth.
The children were very creative and came up with a variety of different designs. We then wrote descriptions of our AI animals during a Literacy lesson.
Today children used Adobe Creative Cloud Express to generate imaginative and fun AI images of minibeasts! We had lots of fun creating, discussing and sharing these images. We hope you do too!
