2025 - 2026
Today, we celebrated Lancashire Day. We collaged the Lancashire flag and used celery to paint a rose. Then we learnt about the cotton mills and how Lancashire is famous for spinning and weaving. The children made their own paper weaving using the colours of the flag. We also learnt about Blackpool and the illuminations and had a sensory session with lots of different lights. The children also turned themselves into clowns! What a fun day!
The children in Owls have been learning about Christmas Around the World. We talked about what people in England do to celebrate Christmas. We painted and decorated a Christmas using watercolours and sequins.
Today, we celebrated Children in Need by completing lots of different activities such as monopainting, Pudsey ears and baking biscuits.
Today, we celebrated Remembrance Day by completing a variety of activities linked to this theme. We made a poppy field on a jar and lit it up with a tealight, made playdough poppies and created a newspaper collage poppy.
The children enjoyed a sensory afternoon in Owls this week.
On Wednesday, we celebrated Bonfire Night by completing a variety of exciting arts and crafts linked to this theme. We had lots of fun!
In our Art/History lesson this week, we painted with tomato ketchup to pretend that we were painting with animal blood, which is what cavemen painted with in the Stone Age. We had a sneaky taste too!
In Maths, we have been ordering numbers up to 5/10/30 and 100 this week.
In English, we found some footprints in the outdoor area. We thought they belonged to a dinosaur, so we sent him a letter. The next day, Terence the dinosaur sent Owls Class a letter saying that he liked biscuits. So, we made some biscuits to give to the dinosaur this morning.
In Science, the children have been learning about sedimentary rocks. We made edible sedimentary rock with rice krispies, marshmallows, mini M&Ms, popcorn and chocolate chips. We had the rock for snack and it was delicious!
Today, we celebrated Jeans for Genes Day by collaging a pair of jeans and decorating a pair of jeans using fabric pens.
In Art this week, we have been learning about Early Art. We painted a wash using watercolours and then drew round an animal from the Stone Age using pastels and coloured them in. We drew stick men to add further detail to our artwork.
In French this week, the children took an imaginary trip to Europe. They made a ticket, filled a suitcase and got on the plane and flew to France. They children really enjoyed the experience and had lots of fun in the process!
The children have had an amazing first week in Owls Class. We have been doing lots of activities around the topic, 'All About Me'. The children have painted self-portraits, collaged a crazy hairstyle and made a chocolate chip cookie for a friend amongst lots of other things. The children have been fantastic and settled in really well!
