For the last couple of weeks we have had a focus on problem solving and life skills.
The children were set different challenges in the Block Play and were able to focus and work as a team to create some wonderful buildings.
Eoin was also helping Mr F fix his bike. He was able to assist taking the chain and the wheel off and Mr F managed to cycle home with a fixed bike!! Great team work!
Eoin and Dan have had a lovely few weeks at the Five Sisters Zoo. We saw lots of animals, and even got to feed some. We have learned a lot about the animals and their habitats.
The Hive children have been getting very excited about Christmas. Our Writing lesson was writing a letter to Santa. We used the Smyths toy magazine for inspiration and ideas. Fingers crossed we get what we asked for!!
Some of The Hive boys and girls were practising motor skills and getting a sensory break by playing on the bikes and scooters. Aria was super at teaching the little ones how to play safely. 
Some of The Hive children are taking part in a project with Five sisters Zoo.
On our first week we got to walk round and become familiar with the zoo. On the second week we got to feed the birds. Last week we got to handle some reptiles!
We are looking forward to meeting the monkeys next week!
The Hive children have been very busy working on their Numeracy skills using the numicon and counters. Alex was practising recognising numbers, matching, sorting and counting accurately. Henry, Aria and Eoin were finding different ways to make 100.
Glen enjoyed joining in with his classes Fischy Music session and worked very hard on his gross motor skills learning how to use the scooter!
In The Hive we have been learning all about the season Autumn. We went into the playground looking for Autumn leaves, sticks and berries. We then brought them back into The Hive and made lovely Autumn pictures to display in our classroom.
On Friday we decided to have a Friday treat. The children decided that they wanted to ice and decorate biscuits. Only problem was, we had no icing or biscuits in The Hive!! So, we decided to take a trip to Tesco to get what we needed.
Great life skills , great fun, and delicious!
The Hive children have all returned from the summer break and are now settled back in to their school environment and ready to learn. We have done a variety of Maths and Literacy activities, at our workstations and through play!
We have had a lovely end to this term, doing some really fun activities. We have been to the Park, out for walks and enjoying the gym hall. We hope all our Hive children and families have a lovely summer break and we’ll see you in August!
