Reception have been investigating minibeasts. We had great fun hunting for minibeasts and finding out about their habitats. We discovered many interesting facts. We even made a minibeast garden!

With the sun shining bright in the sky, we thought we would cool off inside with some shapes and numbers. We have experienced number matching with dice, using shapes in construction, number games on our smart board as well as painting number with brushes and our fingers. Having hand washing at frequent intervals and trying to explain to four year old about why its important to socially distance, we have had lots of fun this week!

The children have been doing lots of Art this week. They have looked at various patters and what techniques are used to design those patterns. They created their own patters using various shapes and types of lines. Over 2 days, the children designed their own with pencil, followed by recreating their design using paint. We also learnt abut the famous Spanish architect, Antoni Gaudi. We explored some of his famous work such as 'Park Guell'. We discovered he used broken ceramic

In Year One this week, we decided we would like to get creative and make our own models. We discussed what materials we could use to support us with our ideas, and we decided we would like to use Plasticine. The children shared various ideas with the group and then went off and designed their own 'Plasticine monster'. They drew their monster and then labelled it to help them know which colours and how much Plastecine would be needed, and if they needed any other materials suc

This week we have had fun in Nursery and Reception. We haven't been able to see all our friends but we have enjoyed playing and making some new friends. We have also been very busy with our learning.

Today Year 2 have been thinking about emotions and feelings. We read a story called ' My Monster and Me' and talked about which special person we could talk to if we are worried or scared. We used oil pastels to draw our special person and shared why they are special. Have a look at our art work. I think you will agree how wonderful they are!
