Our Learning week ending 29th September 2017

This week we have continued with our learning about Autumn

We have been investigating trees and learning to name different parts of the tree.  We have been looking at the different leaves and seeds that have fallen from trees.  The conker shells are very spikey and jaggy but inside the shells are soft and smooth but the conker is hard and smooth.  Ava decided that the Sycamore seeds are just like fidget spinners!

The apples have also fallen from the apple tree in our garden.

We have been gathering the fallen apples and picking others to cook and taste.  We used our fine motor skills to manipulate the knives and chop the apples before cooking them into tasty stewed apples.

We have many more apples on our tree so next week we will be trying different apples recipes.
