This week we visited a local farm and got up and close with the animals. We learnt lots about what lambs need to grow, how they are fed, why some need bottles of milk and what their mummies need too.
There were lots of different farm machines busy working. We got to hear what each one is used for and even got to sit in the tractor- it was so high up and the wheels were bigger than us!
Darling class are really enjoying our Explorers topic.
Inspired by the story 'The Boy who Sailed the World' by Julia Green, the children set about building their own boats. Selecting their own resources and following and adapting their own designs, they took to the water to set sail...
Reception children have been exploring measuring length using standard and non-standard units...
Outside we have been making tea...
... getting in a pickle...
making some willow hearts for someone very special...
and creating and playing our own snakes and ladders game...
We have also been using picture stimuli in phonics to practise our spelling and sentence writing...
and as we lead up to Easter and learning about the Easter story, we have created our very own Easter Garden...
And this is all before the excitement of World Book Day!!!!
