This afternoon we have made Diva lamps as part of our learning about Diwali in RE. Once they are dry, we are going to paint them and light tea light.

The children loved the sensory tough tray created by Miss Orritt this morning. The mud was made from cocoa powder and the children enjoyed smelling it. They loved covering the animals (and themselves) in mud and then washing them clean.

We watched some videos of how elephants walk and we practised walking slowly and quickly like elephants do. We started our session with some warm up exercises which the children loved.

This week in 1B, we have been engaging in a number of fine motor activities including name writing, dough disco and other finger/hand strengthening activities. 

The children have enjoyed playing the musical instruments and having a go at playing the ‘go and stop’ game.

This afternoon 1B & 1H came together for their harvest assembly. We sang some songs and played a game of guess the vegetable. The children were very good at guessing and learnt some new vocabulary for vegetables. Well done all of 1B and 1H.

This morning, we have been exploring the pumpkin. The children began by putting stickers on the pumpkin then we cut the top off and we pulled all of the seeds out. The children were using some great vocabulary such as ‘pumpkin, seeds, pull, wash and clean. 

In 1B, we love having access to such a fantastic outdoor area with so much provision. The children are learning and developing so many skills which are important for classroom development ⭐️
