Collaborative Remembrance art work for our parade. The children also created a beautiful poem to share.

We have been exploring mark-making using a range of materials. Each pumpkin was created using spirals, waves, cross- hatching and dashes. In maths we have been exploring number and colour patterns. We have also had the chance to create Autumn sculptures using natural materials.

We’ve had fun this week exploring the book: Handa’s Surprise. Throughout provision we have been learning how to draw from observation and taste a variety of fruits. We’ve also been re-telling the story through role play made various baskets for Handa’s fruit. During maths, we have been finding 1 more and 1 less and applying this throughout provision. What a busy week we’ve had!

Today we had a visit from some amazing creatures. In Science, we have been learning all about the Animal Kingdom and it was great to learn some new facts. Well done to all of 1DC you were very brave. It’s great that you tried something new.

“We are one body of many parts”.

Today we read ‘Try’ by Rob Burrow and Kevin Sinfield. We then talked about what a ‘hero’ was and who we considered to be our hero.

We realised that heroes don’t need to wear capes, but have qualities that we admire. Many of our heroes were friends of family members.

Continue the discussion at home… who is your hero?
