This week, the children have thrown themselves into their learning and have enjoyed joining in with different activities in the classroom.

We filmed our first Talk 4 Writing story “There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly” and we were so impressed with how they all remembered the words and actions! The children were really excited for their grown ups at home to see it so I hope you enjoy watching it!

In Art, we have enjoyed looking at animal prints and creating their own using paint and oil pastels to create texture.

The children have been great at extending their learning by working independently on new challenges around the classroom. As our topic this half term is “Animal Kingdom”, a lot of the learning has been focused on this which we are loving!

We have been very grateful that this week has been a lot cooler and so we have enjoyed spending time outdoors. The children loved exploring the orchard and picking and tasting the apples.
