In Communication, Language and  Literacy, We have been reading the story Zog, we have enjoyed exploring the sensory materials in our story, mark making in a variety of sensory materials and developing our communication through symbols and vocalisation.

In Mathematics we have been developing our understanding of numbers by making silly soup with different quantities of ingredients, using drums to bang different numbers of beats and matching numerals to each other in sensory materials. We have also been exploring full and empty, we have filled and emptied big and small containers with water, pasta, balls, rice and flour.

In PSHE We have been learning about emotions and how different emotions make us feel. We have looked in mirrors and pulled different facial expressions. We have listened to music and explored how it makes us feel.

In Understanding the World we have had a science focus exploring the life cycle of a butterfly, we have made some fantastic caterpillars, chrysalis and butterflies using collage materials, paint and fabric. We enjoyed watching our tiny caterpillars grow and turn into butterflies, which we released in our play area.

In Expressive Arts and Design we have been looking at the artwork of different artists, Tony Meeuwissen, Sara Fanelli, we have made our own creations of their work and adapted their work to create our own mythical creatures.

In Physical Development we have been developing our skills in football. We have done lots of work on kicking the ball towards a target, dribbling a ball around the hall and kicking a ball to a peer.  This term we have also enjoyed horse riding, some of our children enjoyed meeting the horses and developing their confidence when around them by feeding them and stroking them. Other pupils have developed the confidence to ride the horses.
