Spring 2:

Our class have been looking at:

English: We have been learning all about food, we have written sentences, been asking and writing questions and then answering them.  The children have enjoyed looking at different recipes, (we have even made a few of our favourites) all whilst learning about the bossy verbs that help them to follow the instructions.

Maths: We have looked at addition and subtraction and then moved on to tally charts and pictograms. We had fun getting outside to make a tally chart about the colour of the cars we could see and then sharing our findings with the rest of the class.  The children were all superstars.

Science: We have been looking at the digestive system, we had some mixed reactions when we did our experiment using soggy biscuits and a pair of tights to recreate the digestion process, some children were a little tickle stomached.  We have also looked at teeth, food chains, herbivores, carnivores and omnivores.

Topic: The class has been learning all about food, from farm to fork.  We enjoyed talking about our favourite foods and then learning about where they come from.  We had a look at the process that milk goes through before it gets to the shop for us to buy, we also looked at foods from around the world and how different countries have different traditions.

Forest Schools Another fun term getting outside and exploring our environment, we had lots of fun with sensory play, threating beads, sorting coloured ducks into the correct piles using spoons, bug hunting with magnifying glasses that we made and also making grass heads using soil, seed and tights, we can’t wait until after Easter to see if the hair has grown so we can give them a haircut.

Summer 1:

This term we will be learning How Things Grow and all about the plants in our local area.

Reminders:

Children will continue doing forest schools on a Tuesday (please ensure suitable clothing for the weather (sun cream where necessary) and please send in a change of clothes as we may get dirty/wet. P.E. will still be on Tuesday and Friday’s

Will let you know of any important dates in the dairy and via Dojo.
