The children then put all their poppies together to make a Foundation Stage wreath.

The children had two sets on non identical cubes. The children had to use their sorting skills to sort the cubes into the different colours and then make two bars to compare the amount. The children used their maths knowledge to explain which colour cubes had more and which had fewer.
This morning we went outside to find some leaves and let them dry out.
This afternoon we have created our very own leaf pictures.
They look amazing!
This week it has been ‘barvember’ so as well as our normal Maths lessons we have done more bar models. We have found some of them quite tricky especially the word problems because we have had to read the questions carefully in order to understand how to work out the answers.
Here is some of our work.
This week in Year 1 we have been looking at bar models. We have also been using our rekenreks to support our learning in our power maths sessions!
Today, the children in Foundation Stage have been learning about another celebration – Bonfire Night!
The children began the morning learning about all the different things that happen on Bonfire Night.
The children then made firework pictures using their printing skills.
The children also made sparkler using breadsticks and melted chocolate. They were very yummy!
Outside the children helped Miss Barber make a BIG bonfire picture…which was lots of fun!
The children finished their day by learning about Bonfire Night safety with Fireman Sam.
On Thursday, the children in Foundation Stage learnt about the festival of Diwali. The children began the morning learning about who celebrates Diwali and how people celebrate Diwali.
The children then enjoyed lots of activities linked to their learning about Diwali.
The children made sweets for Diwali because people who celebrate Diwali give sweets to their friends as a way of celebrating.
The children made their own Rangoli patterns as people decorate their homes with Rangoli patterns.
The children learnt that Diwali is the ‘Festival of Lights’. The children all made their own Diya Lamp using clay and sequins to decorate them.
We then finished our day with a story all about celebrating Diwali.
In PE this half term we are looking at the topic Dance. We are linking this to our topic, we did stretches to warm up and then completed some Roman dancing and marching.
We had great fun and learnt lots too.
At home Amira has been busy making a Roman Shield, isn’t it fantastic? Well done.
Year 1 had lots of fun looking around the school grounds and in the forest learning about Autumn. We went on a scavenger hunt to observe the changes in the season.
