Autumn Walk!

By Jodie Buss9th October 2023

 This afternoon F2 went on an exciting adventure around school looking for signs and bursts of AUTUMN! We looked for autumnal colours and the changes starting to take place all around us! We had lots of discussions and conversations about the trees and the plants we could see, and how we could tell that the weather was starting to change! We spotted berries (which we chatted about we can’t always eat!) and signs of insects starting to hide and hibernate for the winter!

We can’t wait to use the different leaves we collected to create our very own leaf men!!!

 

  

The Giant’s Teeth!

By Jodie Buss9th October 2023

Following our surprise package last week the children were very excited to continue this learning and hunt for signs of the missing giant!!!

We used our binoculars and cameras to try get a quick snap of the giant! And we created some amazing giant posters to display around the classroom! The children loved creating their very own life sized giant, adding descriptions to it and thought of so many adjectives to describe him/her!

We also talked about different types of teeth and how we can take care of them, remembering to brush at least twice a day!

We have been looking after the giants teeth with great care…just incase they come back for them!

Jam Sandwiches

Today all the children joined in to make our special jam sandwiches. They enjoyed spreading the butter on the bread.

They then added lots of delicious strawberry flavored jam.

The best bit was at the very end when all the children could taste them.

Lola enjoyed eating her sandwich .She folded it in half then had a huge bite.

Next week we will be making lots of other new exciting things.

SPECIAL DELIVERY!

By Jodie Buss2nd October 2023

WOW! This Monday morning we received a very special delivery… A SUPRISE PACKAGE!!! We were all so excited to explore the package and couldn’t wait to peak inside!

Before we did we guessed at what could be inside and had some wonderfully imaginative ideas! After lots of fabulous paired talk and discussions about the sizing of the package, we carefully opened up the box to find….

A SET OF TEETH?!!!!!

This opened up lots of different questions! Whose teeth where they? How had they arrived here? How could we give them back? How could we look after them?

This led to further discussions about looking after teeth and ways we could try and track down the missing tooth GIANT?! *Given the size of the teeth the children assumed instantly that of course they must belong to a giant*

Tomorrow the children have decided to carry on the investigation further and draw a missing person poster to find whoever they belong to… watch this space…!!!

A week in the life of FS2!

By Jodie Buss2nd October 2023

A few snaps from our fabulous week last week!

The last few weeks we have all been spending lots of time getting to know each other and learning the routines and golden rules of our classroom! We have explored all the different areas, inside and outside!

We have painted, explored, created, investigated and adventured! We have made self-portraits, investigated shadows, explored water capacity, created transient art selfies and most importantly of all…made new friends!

F1 retell Goldilocks and the Three Bears

By S Wilkinson29th September 2023

F1 had a great time this morning, acting out the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.  Some children took on the roles of Goldilocks, Daddy Bear, Mummy Bear and Baby Bear, whilst the rest told them what happened next in the story.

The children did brilliantly, even using different voices for their roles as the bears.  Well done!
