In storytime this week, Oak Class read the story ‘Pumpkin Soup’ and we had a go at cutting and chopping a pumpkin. We also scooped all the seeds out. We used our fine motor skills to control different tools like knives, spoons, tweezers and cookie cutters. We used our imagination to make lots of things like pumpkin soup, pumpkin cake and pumpkin pizza! We had lots of fun!
Oak Class have had fun learning about the story ‘The Three Little Pigs’ this week. We have done lots of drawing and writing about the story, as well as going on a stick hunt to build the stick house, building all the different houses in our outdoor area and in the small world and even acting out the story using masks and puppets.
Chestnut Class had a wonderful time on their trip to Haverthwaite Railway linking with their work on the history of transport.
Oak Class have enjoyed reading and retelling the story of ‘We’re Going on a Bear Hunt’ using small world.
Beech class have made the most of the sunshine by making sundials to investigate what causes day and night.
We explained our findings with the help of a model globe and torch to show that the rotation of the Earth causes day and night.
Chestnut Class have been learning about engineers. They had a science show by a visiting company where they had to help some alien visitors solve a problem. They also took part in class workshops where they used various materials to create inventions to protect an egg on a journey!
Our aquathon team represented school in an event at Bay Leadership Academy, finishing 2nd out of 9 schools. Well done!
