Please check this page for updates of activities which we have taken part in this week at school.

 

Exploring AB Patterns

In maths we have been exploring patterns. We used counters, bears and cotton reels to create AB patterns. The children then spotted patterns in the continuous provision.

Visit to Claremount Methodist Church

In our RE lessons we have been learning about Harvest and why it is celebrated. We walked to our local Methodist Church and the Revered taught us all about Harvest and giving thanks to God. We walked around the church giving thanks to God in a parade.

Forest School

We had a fantastic first week at forest school. We painted with mud, went digging for fossils, zoomed on the zip wire, jumped from the tree, balanced on the rope bridge and explored the whole forest - even having snack around the fire circle. The children smiled as they explored the forest. We are looking forward to going again next week.

Let's Make Faces

This week we have been learning about the artist Pablo Picasso. We have studied his portraits and use of colour. We have also read the book "Let's Make Faces" which explores using objects found around the house to make a face. The children have all made their own Picasso face and also their own loose parts face.
