Hello Everyone! We hope you have all had a great week. Here are some of the lovely things we have been up to…
At the beginning of the week the children and staff wore bright, colourful, bold and mismatched socks to represent uniqueness, inclusion and diversity of people that are born with an extra chromosome 21. This sparked a conversation about what the chromosome 21 looks like under a microscope which resembles small socks.
The children have been risk assessing the garden and setting up to play rugby together. They discussed the rules and ensured how to not bump into each other while playing which shows great spatial awareness. They carried out this game and had lots of fun.
While at the forest, the children took part in:
- Flower hunt
- Fire safety
- Road safety
- Weather conditions
- Searching for mini beast
- Climbing trees
To continue their learning and exploring from forest the children used their pictures of the variety of flowers and recreated these using water colours and paper. They took turns to speak about the similarities and differences between each of the flowers and created beautiful paintings using a range of colours, shapes and sizes to represent each of them.
A group created a castle by using a range of different sized blocks. They used a range of different skills such as spacial awareness, creative thinking and working together with peers to build a structure which shows teamwork, cooperation, negotiation, and sharing. Once finished they asked to use the technology to capture their work and share with parents as they were very proud of their work.
