Children have been learning about Black History Month. We have had assemblies celebrating diversity. In class we have been reading books about different cultures. Lemon Tree class were inspired by a book we read to create imaginary worlds. On Friday children wore red, to show racism the red card.
Pear Tree enjoyed a trip to Plumstead Library. The librarian read us 'The Midnight Library' by Kohara and told us how we could get our own library card to take books out to share with our families. We looked at some stories with our friends and have selected some to take back to class. We are looking forward to more trips in the future.
This term in History, we talked about the past and discussed events from a long time ago. We shared pictures of our families and created our own family tree.
Our nursery children had a wonderful time exploring the outdoors! They developed their Physical Skills through active play, used Numicon to explore numbers and patterns in Maths, and deepened their Understanding of the World by observing nature and working together. Every moment was filled with fun, curiosity, and discovery!
This term in Science, we explored a variety of materials. We identified and named objects made from different materials. We can describe their properties and what they are best suitable for making.
This term in DT, we explored a range of materials and decided that plastic was the best material to build a parachute. We designed a parachute, built it and evaluated our design by putting it to the test.
Today, we revisited the story of Rama and Sita. The story is a
celebration of how good triumphs and is remembered by Hindus every year during
Diwali. Today, we worked in groups to
re-tell the story through dance.
