Today we have been learning about Remembrance day. We have collaged a poppy, looked for hidden poppies in a sensory tray, made a handprint poppy and added it to a poem, decorated a biscuit to look like a poppy and have free painted poppies.
We had a fun filled day celebrating Bonfire night. We had a firework splat activity, firework picture reveal hidden in some glittery oats, coloured in some firework pictures, made edible sparklers, danced to the firework song, explored a firework sensory tray and made a bonfire picture.

This week we have listened to the story ' what's in my house?'. We have matched symbols to pictures from the story, colour sorted, named items from the story, posted letters in the letter box, washed dishes in the play sinks, made a bed, baked some biscuits and printed using kitchen utensils.
This week we have been reading the story ' This is my home' each day we have focused on one room of the house, we have role played a bedroom, baked buns, washed babies in a bath and explored a sensory garden.
We have had a great first indoor PE session. Our topic this term is gymnastics and this week we had an obstacle course and focused on balancing and jumping.

This week we have been focusing on 'all about me' We have explored lots of activities such as using our senses, finding our names, looking at emotions, finding our facial features and body parts.
