Autumn Term 2021We have had a very exciting half term and learnt lots of new skills.
|
Animals Our first topic was ‘Animals’. We looked at the similarities and differences between a wide range of animals and learnt about the characteristics of different groups. In particular we really enjoyed making our own non fiction books. |
Zoolab We were very excited when Zoo Lab visited bringing lots of animals for us to see. This included a frog, a snake and a giant hissing cockroach! |
Materials As part of our topic on materials we were given the challenge of making a coat to keep a teddy dry. First we had to test different materials and then decide which would be best for the coat. Then we worked together like the Together Twins and made, tested and evaluated the coat. |
The Three Little PigsThe children really enjoyed watching the adults act out the story of The Three Little Pigs. Then it was their turn! They enjoyed taking turns being all the characters, especially huffing and puffing like the big bad wolf! |
Exploring Southsea We learnt about our local area and the physical and human features of Southsea. Then we dressed up as explorers and went for a long walk to the seafront. We spotted lots of landmarks that we had seen on Google maps. |
Ernest Shackleton
We loved finding out about the amazing life of the explorer Ernest Shackleton.
We acted out his great expedition and discovered how brave and determined he was.
Christmas We learnt all about making a Christingle and its meaning for Christians. |
We also had fun at our Christmas party!
