Now and Then! Autumn 1

We started this very strange year getting to know each other and settling into our Reception environment.

We explored into human growth with out topic Now and Then. We discussed how we begin our life as babies, then become toddlers, children, teenagers, grownups and finally elderly people.

We used several books to introduce these changes, and how we also change personally (not just physically) as we grow.

Launchpad for language parent session

Parents enjoyed a parent session run by Melody Platford our speech and language therapist today. They had fun making Alan the alien puppets with their parents/carers.

“What a success!!”

Frieze Sculpture exhibition, Regent's Park

This year in Elm Class we have some really exciting trips planned, covering the different topics we are learning about.

We have already been on our first Art-based trip, the Frieze Sculpture exhibition in Regent’s Park, where we explored many different forms of sculpture and the different materials and techniques used. The children loved exploring art in the open and it has given us some fantastic ideas for bringing art and sculpture into our outdoor learning environment!
