Classroom photos
Forest School - today we discussed what an aerial view is, then had a go at making aerial view maps of our Forest School area.
An introduction to maps, we spent some time examining lots of different maps, some were very old and fragile. The children really enjoyed following the roads/rivers and working out the symbols.
A PE lesson with our coach, Mr Creed, focusing on multiskills.
We have been practicing cutting skills - a very important skill to aid fine motor and pencil control. The children made some fictional monsters.
Being responsible - Showing responsibility is one of our school's core values. To demonstrate responsibility, each child was given a little toy animal to look after. They had to make it a suitable home, feed it, clean it, and take it out for exercise. At the end of the day the children got to take their 'pets' home!
Over our first couple of days together we did a lot of team-building activities and played games so everyone got to know each other!
On our first day of school we made self portraits using wool and tissue paper.
