Our trip to Derby Theatre to watch Chicken Licken
Fine motor skills
Look at how hard we have been working to strengthen our hands and improve our hand-eye coordination.
Baking biscuits
This term we have learnt the skills that we need to bake biscuits. We looked at health and safety and good hygiene when cooking. It was great fun practicing our skills in the role play area before preparing our equipment and following a recipe to make our delicious biscuits. They were very tasty and we rated them 10/10 for their taste and texture!
During Literacy and Drawing club we have been looking at the story ‘Room on the Broom’ so to keep with the theme, we have been making and pouring potions, bubbling cauldrons and creating boney skeletons.
Throughout continuous provision we have been working on all the skills we need to ensure we are ready to learn such as how to hold a pencil, how to play together and take turns and how to work as a team.
Animals including humans - All about me!
In science we have been discovering the basic parts of the human body. We have learned that our ears allow us to hear and tell which direction the sound is coming from. We also learnt that sound is made up of vibrations and we used our fingers to feel the vibrations we make when we hum. We then explored the different sounds that our instruments made and had a go at describing them using words from our vocabulary bank.
We looked at how we are able to see and what the different parts of ours do. We tested our pupils by looking at them in the light and watched how they expanded in the dark to let more light in.
We explored the tongue and taste next. We looked at our tongues and identified were our taste buds are. Our taste buds allow us to identify whether a flavour is sweet, salty, sour, bitter, or spicy and we explored this by tasting a range of flavours and describing how they tasted.
The Great fire of London
Look at our amazing Tudor houses! We built the houses to look like they did in the past around the time of ‘The Great Fire of London’ in 1666. We used wool to replicate the straw on the roof and we used strips of brown and black paper to replicate the wooden beams. We then put them close together to show how the fire spread so quickly.
