Maths

This week in Maths, we have continued our understanding about place value. The children have practically made numbers using base ten, tens frames and cubes.

R.E.

The children have explored what ‘prayer’ means to Christians.

Children have highlighted words they like from the creed and created beautiful art work to go with the prayer.

Science

This week in science, the children learnt about senses.

The children explored what senses are and which body parts we use for each one.

French

This week for our French lesson, we learned about European Day of Languages which is celebrated on 26th September. In the lesson, we shared what other languages we have learned or know about. We then identified ways which we can celebrate other languages and cultures, including learning new words, tasting their food, practising languages we know. We also discussed reasons why it is important to learn other languages. To finish the lesson, we learned ways to say hello and goodbye in other European languages.

Forest School

We used the leaf cutters to make leaf confetti and used wool to wrap sticks. These activities develop our fine motor skills. We also used the digging tools safely and lots of apples were found which became some interesting dishes in the mud kitchen. Great teamwork was shown by all. We passed the hedgehog around at the end and made a comment about the session, if we wanted to.
