What we are learning - Autumn 1
A warm welcome to our new children and families. This half term we will focus on our emotions and explore some vocabulary associated with feelings such as happy, sad, excited, angry or scared. The children will learn how to complete self-register to see how they feel each day.
Later in term we will read a traditional tale of ‘The three little pigs,’ We have planned a lot of exciting activities and experiences related to this book and we cannot wait to share it with the children.
The children will celebrate harvest festival and learn about sharing as well as how important is the food that we grow and how we can share it with others who perhaps do not have any.
We will talk about seasonal changes as Autumn is coming in and we will explore some animals that hibernate for winter and others that prepare for winter, the children will learn how to prepare for winter too and how to keep warm on cold days.
The term is packed with hands on activities and wonderful art activities that the children will love.
Keep an eye on tapestry and please share your adventures too we love seeing children being busy at home!
