HARVEST 2021

*Responsible Citizens* *Successful Learners*

The Sungazers have been learning about Harvest this week and how it is celebrated. We collected leaves and natural objects outdoors to make our own Harvest wreaths:

 

We went on a Harvest food hunt around the class. The pupils really enjoyed this and we had lots of great reading, talking, and image recognition:

As part of our Farm to Fork theme, as well as Harvest, we looked at the difference between foods that come from plants and animals:

To finish off our week of learning, we followed a simple recipe to make Oaty biscuits:

Have a wonderful holiday from everyone in the Sungazers!!

Harvest Festival Fun

We have enjoyed our time learning about harvest time, different foods produced, helping others and being thankful for the food we eat.
We went on a food hunt round our classroom and used a checklist to make sure we had found all the items, we made a scarecrow and chose which materials to use for the scarecrow’s hair. We also collected food for the local food bank and took it to the collection point in the school. This afternoon we made our own classroom harvest wreath and made a harvest shaker to shake while we sang harvest songs at the end of the day.
Well done, Asteroids!

IDL Literacy

 

The Asteroids have been enjoying their topic, Oliver’s Vegetables.

We have been reading the book together, dressing up as the main characters and have shown good recall of the main events in the story. We have been sequencing the story using visuals and have been able to answer some comprehension questions based on the story. We have also been matching key words to pictures and characters. Awesome Asteroids Alert!

National Maths Week

*Successful Learners

This week we have been doing loads of numeracy activities. As well as our ILP work we have had an outdoor maths trail, learnt about clothes needed for different seasons, measured and counted ingredients needed for Empire Biscuits and made a rain gauge. We did size ordering, explored a sock box, played snakes and ladders  where we used a dice and measured using large bricks. We had a great time learning.

Successful Learners – Literacy Identifying Characters

The Transition class met Iorek the Bear for the first time this week. They are reading and watching ‘His Dark Materials’ and identifying characters and descriptions. The class were Successful Learners and had fun acting out Iorek’s different emotions which included grumpy and angry! The class used hot and cold colours to make a picture of Iorek with Mrs Macdonald and used this to add to the character description.

Successful Learners – Numeracy

The Transition class were Successful Learners when working on their numeracy outcomes. The class had completed a traffic survey and used their results to make a pictogram showing the number and type of vehicles passing the school in ten minutes.

The class also worked on their own targets of number identification, diary making and positional language.

FAOL MacMillan Coffee Morning Cupcakes

The Asteroids have had lots of fun as they baked their MacMillan cupcakes. They were very confident when gathering the ingredients using the recipe and they loved cracking the egg and stirring the mixture. The boys chose which colour of cupcake case they wanted and were able to sign or say some of the key ingredients and processes.

They then had great fun making three different colours of icing. They enjoyed squirting in the different food colouring and watching what happened to the white icing when they added the colouring. The boys chose which colours to ice their cupcakes from the MacMillan Cancer charity colours – white, green and purple. Most of them opted for using all three!

They all enjoyed eating their cupcakes for afternoon snack!

The boys also enjoyed making a large cupcake to stick on the classroom door and Percy Pig noses to wear when getting our photos taken as Percy Pig.
