FAOL – Outdoor Learning

The Snowdrops have been out in our school playground gathering sticks.  Everyone worked together finding small sticks that had blown onto the ground in the school garden.  We managed to fill a whole tray!  The Snowdrops used the sticks to create a house of sticks, just like the little pig had made in our story.  All our houses are now on our class wall for everyone to see.

Successful Learners in the Oak Class

We made four different smoothies, Orange, Pineapple, Banana and Blueberry. We followed our pictorial, written and sequencer recipes.  Were all responsible for making a different smoothie.  We did a taste test at the end and the most popular smoothie was the pineapple one.

Angus has been enjoying going to PE with his friends, he is confident when using the apparatus.  It is great to see all the boys interacting together.

The Oak boy band in the making are working so very hard with all their songs, our playlist is up to four songs. Well done boys for being successful learners and all working together as a group.

Pet Therapy, the bearded dragon! Anthony loved this and enjoyed watching Lizzy have a snack on some grasshoppers and worms.

We have also celebrated Blake’s Birthday, sharing presents, playing some games and baking him a delicious chocolate cake! It was very tasty!

Swimming with the Sungazers

All pupils have established a great rapport with the new staff working with them this term. They enter in the pool area finding their buoyancy aids. Listening to instruction is paying of; so that all pupils are practising and repeating their skills loads and loads. Smiles all around!
